ShelterBox Challenges

11th and 12th September 2010

On the 11th and 12th of September two teams from Abingdon Vesper will head off in two different directions. One team will be travelling to Dartmoor to take part in the ShelterBox Dartmoor Challenge. The second team will be heading for the Wye Valley to take part in an Alternative Challenge.

Both teams will be raising funds for ShelterBox.

The Dartmoor Challenge is, as the title suggests, a 30 mile course over Dartmoor. Each team will be made up of a contingent of four members and will be expected to cover the course over two days carrying a ShelterBox. The team will be led by Chris LeFerve; Chris is now a veteran Dartmoor Challenger as this will be his third year.

The Alternative Challenge was the result of insufficient team members to make the contingent of the requisite four to cover the Dartmoor Challenge. Undeterred by having only two members, Diane Clarke and Sulwen Vaughan decided that an alternative location was to be found and the Wye Valley was chosen. Like the main event in Dartmoor the course will cover 30 miles and it will be completed in two days.

If you feel that you are able to support ShelterBox we would be delighted to hear from you.
