Mrs Moncs Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 As well as the actual football match itself, The Edinburgh Charity Game are holding a race night on Saturday 23 February in the Orwell Lodge, as an extra fundraiser. All proceeds from both events will be handed over to Maggie's Cancer Care Centre, based at the Western General Hospital. The night will include 8 races, the last of which will be an auction race, and a raffle. We are also hoping to have signed tops and footballs for auction. Tickets are priced at ?2.50 each. We are also looking for 6 race sponsors and people to buy the actual horses. If you are interested in coming along to the night, buying a horse or know of anyone who would be willing to assist with sponsorship, please e-mail [email protected] for more information. Hope you will be able to help us make this evening a huge success in raising as much money as we can for Maggie's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'll be there! Hopefully I'll have a bit more luck than last year! For anyone thinking of coming along for the first time - it was a great laugh last year, the best race night I've been at in terms of organisation and fun!

Sooperstar Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Moncs, I'm away in Leeds that weekend so won't be able to attend. I'll give someone else a chance of winning the raffle! Put me down for a horse though and I'll get Oli/Andy A to give you the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame you can't make it, the raffle was rather amusing last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
