Prizes
Thanks to Box End Park water ski and wakeboard center we are able to offer two £25 vouchers to the two entries that raise the most sponsorship. Please see http://www.boxendpark.com for information about Box End Park. This applies to both paper and just giving sponsorship - please let us know on race day how much you have raised in order to be in with a chance of winning so that we can award the prizes after the race.
