Monmouth Raft Race

Sunday 5 September 2010

45th Annual Rotary Club of Monmouth Charity Raft Race.

Sail your own raft 6 miles along the lovely river Wye.

This is a great team challenge - can you build a raft that will carry 6 or more crew members down the river Wye? The start is at Monmouth Rowing Club, (just off the A40 in Monmouth) at noon. Either race, or paddle leisurely down this gorgeous stretch of the river to Tump Farm at Whitebrook. At the finish field there is entertainment and ample refreshment opportunities. The crew will need to supply their own life jackets, but details of where they can be obtained, together with hints and tips on raft building may be found on the Raft Race website.  How to build a raft (pdf document) Entry fee  is £75,  and we ask that you raise a minimum team sponsorship of £100. Teams must have a minimum of 4 crew members. To enter either contact us on 01633 271364, email Fundraising@stdavidsfoundation.co.uk, or  download and print off an entry form to post.  St David's Foundation are proud to be supported in this event by the Crown at Whitebrook and The Celtic Manor. We also thank the Monmouthshire Beacon and the South Wales Argus for their support.
