The scuba charity I'm helping out are fully fundedby donations and their main event is on August bank holiday weekend. The raft race on Saturday and the duck race on Sunday. The races take place on the river in Ripon between the navigation pub and the lamb and flag. I was wondering if any BMers would like to support us with your presence either on a raft or on land, but it's going to be a fun day, with BBQ, cakes, home made produce etc. It's only £15 to enter a raft, and the water is only waist deep. It's a charity to help those with special needs and disabilities, they need £12000 a year to keep going. It would be lovely for a huge group of bikers to come along and put smiles on those faces that need us.

Good luck with the raft race on Saturday, if sponorship is required i will defo do that for you.

No one else volunteering to float gently down a stream or buy a rubber duckie then?

I thought there would be some brave souls/extreme sports maniacs out there who would be raring to join in the fun. Afterall, duck racing can be an exhilarating experience!

C'mon guys/gals .... Its for charidee!

Ok - I've now put this in the events diary, and I still have 15 ducks left for sponsoring. So roll up, roll up, sponsor a duck for £1? There is a raft race, a swan race, bouncy castle, BBQ, cake stall, tombola etc on Saturday starting at 10am in Ripon - next to water rat pub! Sunday is the duck race starting at 2pm, again with stalls, BBQ, etc. This charity is wholly funded by donations, and achieves so much for so little.
