11th NAIRNSHIRE CHALLENGE – 25 May 2008
ROTARY CLUB OF NAIRN
ENTRY IS OPEN NOW AND YOUR ENTRY FORM DOWNLOAD LINK IS BELOW
More than £38,000 was banked by you and other participants in the 2007 Challenge. We hope to better that in the 11th Nairnshire Challenge and the Rotary Club of Nairn now invites you to enter a team again.
Beneficiaries from previous Nairnshire Challenges have included the Nairn Playing fields Project, a scanner for the Nairn Medical Clinic, the Nairn Community Centre and “Mercy Ships” – a charity supported nationally by Rotary. In addition many smaller amounts have gone to support local charities and organisations, many of which are youth based. A full updated listing will soon be available on the website
The same route as last year will be used. Our thanks go again to the Lord Cawdor, the Dowager Countess Cawdor and Cawdor Estates for their consent to cross their land and also for their interest in and support of the Challenge.
Please return your Entry form to Dougie Flannigan as soon as you can. Sponsorship Forms will then be sent out. You will see that the Forms again emphasise how you can increase by 28% the effect of your sponsors’ donations by getting them to complete in full all the Gift Aid details. In 2007 Gift Aid was worth an extra £7,000 – at no extra cost to your sponsors.
Entry Forms are available here
On behalf of the Rotary Club of Nairn I thank you for your support in the past and hope that you will enter again this year.

Dear All involved in the Nairnashire Challenge,
This was my first attempt at the Challenge and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The organisation was fantastic, I have never seen so many volunteers. Everything was perfect, I would like to know how you managed to turn the weather on so beautifully. Now I have my time, I will be pushing myself next year. Well done to everyone.
