Thank you for taking part in this year’s event. We hope you enjoyed your day.
For our part we were delighted with the support again this year and the way that
the event was received. Thank you to those of you who made favourable comments
at the finish and, subsequently, by email and telephone.
We are pleased to say that this year’s event has raised a further £1500 for
Cornish Hospices. This will bring the total to almost £9500 over the ten years
that the present organising team from Newquay Auto Club have been running the
event. This would not be possible without your support and, of course, the
considerable financial support received from our enthusiastic sponsors of the
event over a number of years.
As you know, we are considering changing the charity which the event supports. A
number of people spoke to myself and others at the finish on 29th June and the
unanimous view was that they would continue to support the event provided the
charity was “Cornish” and a deserving cause. The “Precious Lives” Children's
Hospice Appeal was a suggestion that was endorsed by the majority.
We have yet to discuss this at committee level but will be doing so in the next
few weeks. In the meantime, we would appreciate your views. If you have not yet
given your view, perhaps you could let us know if you have any strong feeling
either way?
We plan to run the event again next year, on or near the current date, using a
different part of the County. The majority view seems to support the current
route format. If you have any suggestions to make then, again, please free to
contact us and we will try to incorporate them. Further details will be
available from the end of the year, and will be posted on this Website (
www.newquayautoclub.co.uk ).
Hope to see you again next year!
