Help Susannah Lynch fundraise for World Secondary School Cross Country champs!
Posted by Mike Waterman on Monday, 16 January 2012
The Lynches are organising a quiz evening on Sunday 29 Jan as a fundraiser for Susannah to travel to the World Secondary School Cross Country Champs in Malta in March. It’s 6.30pm for a 7pm start. It would be great if as many supporters as possible can go as the trip is self-funding and they have to raise a lot of money.
  • The cost is $10 per person
  • Teams of 6
  • Send names of teams or individuals (they can put you in a team if you’d prefer) to Margriet Lynch at lynch5@actrix.co.nz or contact Jo Murray if you'd prefer.
  • You can also eat there - contact Margriet
  • 6.30pm for a 7pm start on Sunday 29 January
  • Venue is Monteith’s Bar in Paremata
If you can't attend, donations are also welcome.
