Leisure Centre Raft Race

Submitted by Robert Smith on Wed, 16/07/2014 - 17:11

4SLC (Stocksbridge Community Leisure Centre) is trying to raise much needed funds for the wet side to try and open the pool.

This event had 12 teams last year and this year only 4 teams have currently signed up. 4SLC desperately need your help to get involved and are asking if you can get a team together and support the centre.

There should be 6-8 people per team at the cost of £120.00 entry fee (£20 each for a team of 6, £15 each for a team of 8) which split between all of the team is not a lot of money to raise to help support this event.
