After a very early start to get on the Breakfast Show for Radio Lancashire, the One Ball Rally Team is now gearing up for a television appearance on Friday so its all action stations!!
I will attempt to get the audio hosted on here from the interview so if you missed it, you can listen again!
Because of all the media interest and the introduction of a number of 'big' sponsors, as well as feasibility issues, the One Ball Rally has finally emerged as a definite and coherent plan to raise money for the Assoc. of International Cancer Research & Everyman Testicualar Cancer.
The New (& Final!) Plan for OBR is as follows:
The route will now go from Ormskirk (my home-town!) and Istanbul, departing on the 21st march 2008.
The route will take in the following towns and cities:
Ormskirk
London
Brussels
Frankfurt
Salzburg
Budapest
Szeged
Bucharest
Burgas
Istanbul
This amounts to a trip of 2350 miles and it will be carried out in a London Taxi!
That's right, a classic London Taxi as car firms will not allow the required amount of lee-way in regards to decorating the car and getting our sponsors on the vehicle so as a group, we decided to get the comedy element of the One Ball Rally starting with the vehicle!
The Taxi will then be auctioned off in Istanbul and all proceeds will go to the two Cancer charities so more money can be raised!!
So, we are now appealing, imagine pleading on hands and knees, for help in three key areas if you own your business or work for a large company:
- Funds for the purchase of the Taxi. (total being £1000)
- Funds for the purchase of food (approx £500)
- Funds for accomodation on route (again, £500)
I know someone out there can help, and if you want to help in any other way at all, then please email on our new email address which is ONEBALLRALLY@HOTMAIL.CO.UK
Thanks for supporting and the donations service will be up & running very shortly!!
Dave.
