The 7th Weary Traveller Annual Bowling Day

 

Weary Traveller Inn, Kidderminster - 28th August 2005

 

The Lord Mayor of Kidderminster, Peter Dyke, opened the 7th Annual Weary Traveller Bowling Day in bright sunshine at 1pm on Sunday 28th August.

 
The Mayor was very interested in the CRY campaign and, along with his chauffeur, took away 25 CRY postcards to give to their work colleagues.

The event was bathed in sunshine throughout, and although there did not appear to be as many people present as last year, the day raised a magnificent £1400 for CRY.

Kath's bottle behind the bar contained £382; Mick Billion's 'Head Shave' (see below) raised £200; and he also organised the auction which raised a further £130.

Lorraine, with helpers, ran the raffle, whilst Pauline was on the barbecue - not literally, I must add!

Tony with the bowling, and my granddaughter Catherine and her new friend Reyanne on the balloons, also helped to swell the record fundraising figure.

Next year's is already being planned.

 
The £1400 raised is going towards the West Midlands ECG testing program which we hope to start in the new year in memory of Kay Wilson, 18; Jenny Pearce, 19; Alison Linforth, 16; Andrew Ball, 16; and many many more.
