Durham Regatta - 2008

Sat, Jun 14th 2008 at 12:00 am - 2:00 am

Once again, we attended the Regatta with the miniature railway and tombola, both to raise funds and to raise awareness of Rotary.


We had a successful, if tiring, weekend at this, the 175th Regatta. The Tombola was cleared out early on Sunday afternoon. We also collected a useful amount from donations in return for rides on the miniature railway, all of which will go to the Polio Plus fund.
