Raffle Prizes
Lots of prizes are up for grabs over the weekend. With much higher odds of winning than the National Lottery, why not have a flutter on one of our two raffles?
Raffle: Non-Canoeing
Tickets are now on sale for the ‘non-canoeing’ raffle. This doesn't mean that canoeists can't buy tickets, it just ensures that your granny isn't wondering what to do with a polo helmet or cag. Tickets priced £1 are available from one of the committee or are on sale at the event. The raffle will be drawn at 7pm on Saturday 29th May.
- 1st Prize: An adventure weekend for two
- 2nd Prize: Spode hand painted plate
- 3rd Prize: Jasper Conran Stuart Crystal gift set
- 4th Prize: Silver Monkey Puzzle pendant
- 5th Prize: Two Japanese Samurai swords
First Prize: An adventure weekend for two
Top prize is an adventure weekend for two in North Wales. The Berwyn Arms are treating one lucky couple, or two friends, to two nights B & B accommodation in their bunkhouse outside of Llangollen. To get the adrenalin going, just along the road, JJ Rafting is providing an action-packed day for you to choose from either whitewater rafting, kayaking, canoeing, quad biking, laser clay shooting, climbing, abseiling, problem-obstacle courses or gorge-walking. Round the day off with a well-deserved free evening meal at the Berwyn Arms pub.
If this sounds like it might wash out the purple rinse, I'm sure a deserving son, daughter, grandchild, friend etc would really appreciate it.
Second Prize: A hand painted plate from Spode.
Hours of work have gone into this unique floral plate, which usually retails at over £100.
Third Prize: Jasper Conran Stuart Crystal gift set.
One for trendy men: a bottle of Jasper Conran aftershave with two Stuart Crystal whiskey tumblers. It’s not advised that you drink the aftershave from the tumblers!
Fourth Prize: Monkey Puzzle silver and gold cross pendant.
Monkey Puzzle is an exclusive shop in York who specialise in contemporary jewellery that is a little bit different and special. The pendant is a silver cross with a gold plated pace suspended on a silver rope chain.
