Thought I'd make use of our new list - have just heard from Ian Johnson who
is organising Hogmoney this year and it seems that a few Rags who had put
down for coming along are dropping out. So they are really looking for some
Scottish Rag participation to take up the slack!
For those not aware of this event's history, it is the largest single
collecting event held in Scotland, and has in the past rivaled London
Undergrand (For Help the Aged) as the largest such event in the UK.
Collecting takes place from the 29th through to the 31st in Edinburgh,
Glasgow and (if numbers allow) in a few other places in Scotland. Collectors
are provided with basic crash accomodation in Edinburgh, and get free
tickets to the world famous Edinburgh Hogmonay Street Party. It's a huge
potential fundraiser and profile raiser for Cancer Research UK - but only
with your help!
I know it is late for this but if you have any volunteers that will be
around in Scotland for the New Year period and would be up for taking part
in one of the longest running and best loved Rag mega-raids, please get in
touch with Ian at hogm...@ragabonds.org.uk and see the attachments for
details and sign-up forms.
Some great people will be there who are extremely experienced Raggies too so
it's a good chance to pick a few brains for ideas for your own Rag.
All the best for the festive season,
Phyl Meyer
