Well, who’d a thought it?! You might have expected by now that he’d have learnt his lesson but, clearly, Bob is made of even stronger Scots stuff! Aye, still gullible tho’! Although Bob has been unable to raise an Association team this year (they’re not all daft then!), he’s been coaxed into participating in the annual TSW Bergathon for one last time (yeah, right!) as part of another team. The event will take place on Thursday 26th September and this year’s Wing charity is The Donna Louise Children’s Hospice.
For the uninitiated, the Bergathon is the annual RAF TSW Military march and shoot competition. A six-man team each carry 35lb rucksacks with rifles over a distance of 30 km and all members must complete one shooting practice on the range. The Association will, of course, be making a donation and, on behalf of Bob, we would be very grateful for any sponsorship you could give too. If you are able, please do give generously so that we can encourage Bob in this [one last?!] magnificent effort. Every little bit counts and it helps ease the consciences of those of us that don’t do the sweating, but watch from our armchairs! Please send cheques, made payable to SERVICE FUNDS RAF COSFORD, to Bob at 25 Deepdales, Wildwood, Stafford, ST17 4NE. Alternatively, you can sponsor Bob via the Association’s PayPal facility by using the Donate button below – please show “Bergathon” as the purpose – any sums received in this way will be forwarded, in full (ie the Association will bear the small cost of the PayPal fee) to Bob and, thus, to TSW’s worthy charity.
Thank you!
