Sponsor day

Around 50 Junior Blues members and a similar number of adult supervisors took part in the annual fundraising event - a sponsored walk from the House of Sport to Windsor Park before the Linfield v Lisburn Distillery game.

Weather conditions were favourable except for a brief hailstorm as the walk neared Windsor Park. When the walk reached Windsor Park, Supreme Catering provided a burger and drink for each of the young participants and the walk finished with a circuit of the Windsor Park pitch.

The group were warmly applauded by the South and Kop Stands.

Bucket collections were held behind the turnstiles and raised £364. Undertaking the bucket collections were Charlotte and Natasha McQuade, Keilie Kirk, Andrew McCrea and Stephanie Moore. Mark Winstone and his dad Tom coordinated the buckets and arranged the food with Supreme Catering.

Taking part in the walk were Andrew Martin, David Moore, Darren McCracken, Adam and Rebecca Smyth, Chantel Pomeroy, Luke Hill, Gerald McCreey, Michael Crawford, Gareth Linton, David and Rachael Stewart, Aimee McMinn, Kirsty and Louise Shortt, Conor Lamont, Daniel McCann, William Craig, Travis McClurg, James Cousins, Jordan Stewart, Corey Jamison, Gary and Ryan McKee, Katie Nelson, Adam Kelso, Rachel Kane, Lyndsay Hunter, Glenn Reid, Gareth Deane, Adam and Amy Wright, Matthew Wilson, Paul Mawhinney, Sarah Bittles, David and William Perry, Curtis Martin, Alex McDonald, Nathan Houston, Neale Fraser and Jonathan Megaw.

A special word of thanks to Michael Crawford who drove members to the House of Sport in his mini bus on 2 separate trips.

With only a few of the sponsor forms returned to date and taking into account the bucket collection, the total amount raised to date is a very impressive £867.

Remaining sponsor money or other donations can be forwarded to Andy Conn at any time and preferably before the end of the season.

A big thank you to all who participated in or donated towards the fundraising appeal.
