| Join us for a knees-up in Morecambe Bay! |
This year we have booked the ‘Queen’s Guide
to the Sands’ to accompany an exclusive party of Akany Avoko and MfM supporters
on this iconic adventure.This is a rare opportunity to step out onto the
shimmering sands of Morecambe Bay, admire the backdrop of majestic mountains
and maybe find some Ambergris (Whale sick!). This beachcomber’s jackpot is highly
valued by the perfume industry. Last week a beachcomber found a piece of
Ambergris worth £100,000 in Morecambe Bay! So keep your eyes peeled.
As well as being a fun day for a good cause
this is a golden opportunity not to be missed. This year our guide, Cedric
Robinson, is celebrating 50 years of guiding people across
Morecambe's infamous sinking sands. Although the sea air has clearly defied
Cedric from aging, one day, sooner or later, Cedric will retire, taking with
him the secret of the sands and the art of how to cross them.
Places on the walk are in high demand with supporters
from Cambridge, Oxford, London, The Wirral, Llangadog and Madagascar already signed up.
Local Lancastrians aged 8 to 80 are also limbering up - including parties from Lancaster
Girls Grammar School, Quernmore Primary School, University of Cumbria
Pre-school, Lancaster Millenium Choir and Lancaster Quakers.
Please do support the big MfM Stride into the
Tide on the 14th of July either by joining us for the knees-up or
sponsoring someone else to get their pants wet! Advanced booking is essential by contacting irenee@moneyformadagascar.org. More details
will soon be featured on the Events page of this blog.
