Sponsored Walk to Cardington Fundraiser ! - A Great Success !  
   

We all must congratulate Trevor Monk who managed to walk some 17 miles from Newport Pagnel in Buckinghamshire to Cardington, Bedfordshire. Trevor managed to raise over £120 in sponsorship for the Airship Heritage Trust Appeal fund be completing this feat.

Luckily the Jubilee weather smiled upon Trevor and he had glorious weather on Saturday 1st July. Trevor, who after a few practice walks in the week before the event, had to make a start at 6.00am in the morning to try to beat some of the traffic on the heavier used roads of the route. It took Trevor some 5 1/2 hours to complete the 17 miles on a very hot day, an impressive time.

Those people who kindly sponsored Trev, please can you send your sponsorship to him at the following address :-

Jackson Gate and a well earned rest.

Everyone agrees......WELL DONE TREV !
