7th Fundraising Bag-Pack January 2013
Our 7th Bag-Pack took place on the 19th January, on what was a cold and snowy day. It was anticipated that it may not prove particularly fruitful because of the weather, however we were to be proven wrong. By the time the cash donations had been counted an amazing £675.98 had been collected.
This Bag-Pack unusually was done retrospectively, as the proceeds were to be used for the Kids Christmas Bowling Day. Initially the event was planned for December, but what with a busy Wado UK calendar matched by the Iceland Store commitments, it was postponed until January.
Once again we had excellent support from our members, without whom the day could never take part. Of course without the continued support of the Iceland Store and its staff at the NorthPoint Shopping centre, it couldn't take part either.
Thank you to all who assisted on the day, and below you can see photos and details of the event.
We would like to thank all those who took part in the event, with the youngsters being:
Joe Rose, Charlotte Pinder, Josh Beaumont, Oliver Dearing, Amy Newton, Mia Cowles, Lauren Foster, Logan Foster, Lauren Horner, Thomas Balaam-Reed, Stevie Bell, Maddison Bell, Callum Longmuir, Max Hairsine, Ashley Oldershaw and Josh Hartery.
Adults who helped supervise the kids were:
Gaynor Dent, Chris Dearing, Steve Bell, Steve Balaam-Reed, Mike Hairsine, and Tony Dent.
Thank you also to the parents who delivered and collected their children to the shop, your support is also much appreciated.
Of course it wouldn't be a Wado UK Bag-Pack unless we had our "Guess the amount collected challenge". All the guesses and two best guess winners can be seen below.
