“Maggie’s” Cheltenham Gold Cup Day


The Rotary Club of Thornhill and District are pleased to announce their 3rd Annual Cheltenham Gold Cup Day Friday 13th March 2020

The "Maggie's" Cheltenham Race afternoon has proved to be one of our most popular fund raising events of the year, in association with The Woodland House Hotel and T. N. McKay we will be holding this years event at The Woodland House Hotel, Dumfries on Friday 13th March 2020.

The Cheltenham Festival is the highlight of the Jump season with thousands of enthusiastic race goers descending on the small spa town to soak up and enjoy the special atmosphere generated throughout this week. But now in a clever and imaginative venture the Thornhill and District Rotary Club will be bringing the excitement and drama of Cheltenham’s Gold Cup day to Dumfries and Galloway, all in the aid of charity.

The Rotary club are raising funds for the Maggie’s Centre’s hence the event being named "Maggie’s Cheltenham Gold Cup Day" Rotarian members will be significantly involved in the organisation of this special day for Maggie’s: “Our club has been involved with Maggie’s over the years and we believe it was fitting that we recognise the inspiration of local woman Maggie Keswick in creating a blueprint for cancer care centres.

The afternoon will begin at 12.30 with a Prosecco and canapés reception. The first race is at 1.30pm and similar to previous years we will have live TV coverage along with a Tote betting system in operation. Afternoon Cream tea's will be served mid afternoon with Prosecco flowing until we run out, a pay bar will also be available, the afternoon will finish at approx. 5-5.30pm.

If you would like to join us, enjoy a fantastic afternoon, have a wee flutter and raise money for “Maggie’s” more information can be found by contacting: Gordon Lawson:    contact@rotarythornhill.org

Tickets will remain the same as previous years @ £40.00 pp. Be quick they are going fast!
