[Richard Ingham]

The 2012 BDF Sponsored Walk, sponsored by Peter Sharp, will take place on Saturday 23rd June.

This year we will be undertaking a 9 mile (shorter route is possible for those not up to the full length) around the North tip of Walney and back across to the Crossbar for refreshments.

Posters, sponsor forms, and full details of the route etc will be available shortly, but if anyone is interested in taking part, please leave your name here, drop me a PM or see any BDF member at the Newport game.

If you can get Russ to e-mail me a poster or anything else promoting this I'll stick them up around the yard. I'll pm my work address to you Richard.
