Donate a Disc...

Some of you may or may not know about the Lemmings Ultimate and Cancer REsearch or LUCRE annual fundraiser tournament I run each year. It's a one-day, indoor Ultimate tournament held in the Midlands. LUCRE 2009 raised £550 for Cancer Research UK, and the target for LUCRE 2010 in January is to raise even more than this.

A large proportion of the money raised comes from Team Entry Fees, but a significant amount comes from a raffle that we hold on the day. Last year companies donated gifts, which we then used as raffle prizes. All of the money from raffle tickets sold also went to Cancer Research.

This year we thought as this is one of only a few (the only one?) charity Ultimate tournaments, that you as the Ultimate community would like to contribute. Similar to previous requests on BritDisc, we're suggesting that clubs 'Donate a Disc' to the raffle. Your club will go up onto the LUCRE website and also get a thanks in the full-colour programme on the day, plus you'll all get a warm glow inside from doing some good. If individuals want to donate a disc (or jersey) that's fine too, all we ask is that it's new. There are more details 'here', just click on the 'Donate a Disc' link.

I'll be at most forthcoming tournaments, which I've listed below, just find me (Lucas, Lemmings #8) or any Lemmings player, and donate away. If you'd like to post a disc, please email me and I'll give you my address.

Thanks very much, Thrillson.
