Fly fishing / casting auction, aid of Diabetes UK

Post by White Hunter »

To the Sexyloops lads..
As many of my good friends on here will already know, my youngest daughter who is now seven has had type one Diabetes since she was the age of one.

On twitter last month I ran a small competition for a days tuition and one of the winners requested that I either gave the day to someone else or made a donation to Diabetes UK. I decided that I would therefore auction his day as i can potentially raise more than i could donate, all money raised is going to the above charity.

Can I please ask that you read and share with as many as possible the short wordpress article below outlining how this came about and what my intentions are.

I will be hitting twitter hard today " @stsflyfishing " with this as I would like to try and raise as much money as possible before bidding ends at midnight tonight.

May I take this this opportunity to say this is an open day where the time can be used for casting tuition, guided fishing, instructor training, making an testing shooting heads :) whatever..;)

A sincere thank you in advance and wishing you all All the best for 2013
Cheers
Lee

Hi

Just to let you know that the auction was won by an anonymous bidder who was represented by the West Cumbria Rivers Trust with a bid of £285 for the casting/fishing day :)

A great start to the new year!!

Cheers
