Model Lifeboat Display St.Ives Cornwall
« on: September 09, 2013, 05:50:10 pm »
Hi everyone,
if anyone is in Cornwall next Saturday 14th September,I shall be in the St.Ives Lifeboat Station,with my 1/12th model display "Lifeboats Through the Years"Hopefully a few friends will come down with their models,to support me.We are hoping to have some models on the water if we can.Please pop in to say hello,and hopefully put a donation into our buckets,in aid of the "St.Ives Shannon Lifeboat and Trailer Appeal.
    St.Ives Fundraiser Suzanne Tanner,is taking part in the Great North Run on the following day, for the same appeal,so anyone "oop T'North" please give her some support as she passes through.
Thanks,
Mick F

Thanks Neil
no I have one more rally to do next weekend at St.Mawgan near Newquay.Then its rest time until we come up to the Blackpool Show and the Warwick Show, then its back home to start on my Christmas Lights display!
No holiday this year,but we have decided that 33 Rallies and Lifeboat days in a year is too much so we are most certainly going to cut back now.I am hoping this weekend will take my collections for the RNLI over the £3000.00 mark for this year.
