| Phil Hogg Fund Raising
Night - Thank You
|
I would on behalf of my family and all involved in
Hogg Rescue like to thank everyone who once again donated to the Phil Hogg
Rescue Auction in February.
This years total of £8,686 far
exceeds last years amount and helps greatly to ensure the continued running of
the Phil Hogg Rescue Units & also the Rob Vine Fund. This is even more
welcomed as the loss of this years TT races takes a big chunk out of the normal
monies collected during TT fortnight.
I would especially like to thank
our long term donors who have continued to support us annually & also
welcome the many new donors who have helped us this year. Also thanks are
extended to the many people & companies on the mainland who donate
willingly without any real knowledge of what the Phil Hogg Rescue Unit is all
about.
I will try to name all donors but as normal there are bound to be
one or two missed. I therefore apologise to anyone whose name is not here and
would appreciate it if they would let me know so I can grovel apologetically to
them. Here goes:-
