Hurry up if you want to go on the Midnight Walk!
'riME is running out fast for people who want to take part in the ladics-onlv Midnight Walk.
The half-marathon (13-mile) venture is the latest fund-raising idea from the Blackburn- based East Lancashire Hospice, which cares for terminally ill patients across the Ribble Valley, Hyndburn and Blackburn.
'The walk is planned for the night of Saturday, June 23rd into Sunday the 24th - just a few days after the longest day of the year.
One of the first to get involved was Blackburn Rovers FC, whose Ewood Park ground is the perfect start/finish point, with lots of park ing, toilet facilities and room for walkers to check in.
Each walker will get a specially-printed T- shirt, a goody bag with water and fruit for the walk, a bacon buttie breakfast (or vege tarian alternative) at the end of the walk and a commemorative medal.
The walk takes a circular route, with a mid point check-in at the Bowker BMW show room, which will be opened for the event.
Hospice head of fund-raising Mr Harry Grayson has stressed that the walkers need to register as soon as possible.
He said: “The registration closure date for the walk is Friday, June 1st. Everybody must be registered before that date, and failing to do so will mean will not bo able to participate.
“We have 630 ladies registered to data and want 1,000. Please hurry and support this worthwhile cause.”
The cost for registration is £15 for adults and £10 for girls aged 10 to 17, although they must be accompanied by adults.
For a registration pack about the Midnight Walk, call 01254 660900.
Young Farmers will
showcase activities IF you ever wondered just what the Young Farmers do, then an event next month should provide all the answers.
The Lancashire Young Farmers are hosting an event at which they will showcase what they do and how young people from all back grounds can join the organisation.
You do not have to be a farmer to join Anyone aged between 10 and 26 with an interest in the countryside, meeting new people, learn ing new skills and, most of all, having a great time can find it all at Young Farmers.
The image of welly wearing, straw-chewing members is one the organisation wishes to dispel. Competitions range from public speaking, debates, quizzes, fancy dress, obstacle courses, sports and much more.
And best of all, young people are in charge. The organisation is member-led, ensuring that what the members’ want the members’ get.
There are 19 clubs throughout Lancashire and more than 600 members. Special skills are not needed and you certainly do not need to own, work on or even have ever visited a farm!
On Saturday, June 9th, the Young Farmers will showcase their talents at the Party in Pasture event taking place at Higher Green- head Farm, Sawley. Doors open at 1-30 p.m. and you can watch members take part in tug of war, fence-erecting, sheep-shearing and a special maze race and inflatable challenge!
