Summer Solstice 24-hour Croquet Marathon, raising funds for homeless people and HWCC

Yes, the Big Bash is only six weeks away (noon on 19th June to noon on 20th). 

Your Town Cryer (that's me!) has Three Messages today:


​Message 1. For all members who are not able to participate, you still have an opportunity to support these good causes. Mark H is going to valiantly try to complete the whole 24 hours. He'll be combining playing, organising and keeping a BBQ alive (perhaps that last one being the most challenging!)  You are all invited to sponsor this particularly crazy challenge. Here's the link to his site:  https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/mark-higgins-75

Message 2. There is still time to join in and take up two shifts of 1.5 hours each. If you feel you can, please do. Just get in touch with Mark and he'll sign you up [email protected].  He’s your man for any questions or (polite!) suggestions, too.
 
Message 3. For those of you who have joined the core group of players, you now have your sponsorship forms and website and I hope you can start to get support. 

Thank you.

Finally, a message to all - our illustrious President of the Croquet Association, Quiller Barrett, will be launching the event and playing in the first game at noon on Saturday 19th. We hope that as many of you as possible will come along and support the start of the Marathon. As ever, there will be drinks and food on hand! 

​Best wishes,
Mark
