May 2001 Newsletter Hi everybody, As we are approaching what would have been "TT Practice Week" I thought we would provide you with our latest Fund up-date so far….. As you can imagine, even though there are no races at this years T.T., we still need all your continuing support over the next few weeks in order for us to raise further funds to build the Disablement Lodge in the name of the late Joey Dunlop, M.B.E. O.B.E. If you are interested in purchasing any Joey Dunlop memorabilia items then come and see us at the Hailwood Centre from Sunday 27th May - Friday 8th June (hours, variable and subject to demand) There will be a lot of our helpers selling the following items:- Brick Cards T. Shirts C.D's Videos Stamps Badges Stickers And much, much more. As well as the above, we will also be setting out stalls at various events, including the Fun Loving Criminals night and also the Van Morrison evening. The Committee members would like to thank the following people who have been involved in making our latest donation from Heron and Brearley possible: Chris Taggart and his assistant, Jean who have been absolutely fantastic in making sure our posters and collection boxes for the Joey Dunlop Injured Riders Fund (Isle of Man) are based around their public houses from now until next year. Any contributions via the collection boxes will be gratefully received and go towards the building of our disablement lodge. |
