THE YORK SAMS LYKE WAKE CHALLENGE 2012

10 August 2012

Take heed! Three fearless roving volunteers from our branch are completing this FORTY MILE trek across the North Yorkshire Moors in ONE DAY! Laura 707, Tom 704 and Tom 751p will be making the mammoth journey on Friday 10th August to raise sponsorship for our branch. That is 40 MILES(!) of ascending and descending trails across the whole national park. Guided by Sherpa Adam 658, they will be traversing steep ravines, perilous boggy sections, scars, streams and splintery styles. This is no cream cake crossing, forget matching jackets and stopping for a munch of Kendal mint, this is a peat encrusted blister nightmare! All of this made possible by the Driving Support Team - Hannah 735p


Only 0 days to go!
