Jags Trust Race Night - 27th November 2009

We are pleased to announce that the Jags Trust will be holding a Race Night from 7pm on Friday 27th November in the Aitken Suite at Firhill.

The evening will involve nine horse-races, each of which will consist of 8 competitors. Bets can be placed before each race, then the race shown on screen and a winner declared. Take a punt and hope to strike lucky!

The Trust is offering several Sponsorship opportunities for the event. In the first eight races, each horse can be bought and named for the princely sum of £2. Perhaps you think "Outpaced by Maxi" (copyright Tom Hogg) stands a chance against "Thistle Doo". If your horse wins the race, you stand to win one of the special race prizes, so it's always worth a shot.

The final race will be an Auction Race, with each horse auctioned off in turn to the highest bidder. The winning horse owner takes half of the Auction pot: the higher the bids, the bigger the reward!

Perhaps you would be interested in sponsoring one of the races? For £50, you or your organisation can secure an advert in our full colour A5 programme, can name the race you sponsor, present the prize on the night to the race-winner, and receive two complimentary tickets to the Race Night itself. We are pleased to announce that Energy Sense UK have already agreed to sponsor one of the night's nine races. All race sponsors will feature in our publicity for the event as soon as they have signed up, so the sooner you sponsor a race, the better.

There will also be a supper buffet laid on, and tickets for the event are available at £5 per person.

If you are interested in any of the sponsorship opportunities or securing your tickets now, please contact the Trust at secretary@jagstrust.com.

Come along, have some fun, and help the Trust raise funds for its Club and Community activities!
