Ryde Rowing Club - Regatta Raffle.
/Our regatta is fast approaching and we are collecting prizes for a raffle to be held on the day. If you have anything (unwanted gifts, boxes of chocolates/biscuits, bottles of wine/spirits etc.) that you would be happy to donate, we would be extremely grateful. If you know of a business that would be happy to donate and they require a formal letter, let me know and I can supply one.
This regatta is our main fundraising event for the year and is even more valuable to us as a club, since not being able to host one since 2019, due to COVID. Coastal rowing remains one of the few truly amateur sports still in operation with no payments or expenses paid to competitors, officials or coaches and no cash prizes awarded.
If you have a donation, you can either give it to a member of the club, leave it down the rowing club, or if it requires collection, please let me know and I can arrange this.
Many thanks
