Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat 2009
Hi One and all,
A few of us went up to Runswick yesterday and handed over Five Hundred and Eighty Pounds sterling to the crew, a superb amount of money for their funds as always they asked me to pass on their very grateful thanks for your support, so a big sloppy kiss to all the ladies and a firm handshake to all the men (unless you prefer it the other way round)
They took 4 people out in the boat, it was a bit "bumpy" but everyone was exhilerated then they came back to shore, a once in a lifetime experience for most people. On the way back to Whitby I was given £20 to start the next fund off !

From myself and Christine can I add my own thanks to all who came and sang, played, performed, listened, donated money and raffle prizes I thought the night was brilliant, so many wonderful performers in one room.

We may be able to charter the Esk belle during folk week and are looking to revive the Glaisdale train after last years double booking of the pub we use, as regatta and folk week clash there is a double incentive to ensure it goes ahead this year.

Once again THANK YOU to all you wonderful people !!!
