LONDON DAY

Our Seventh Annual Golf Classic took place at Grange Golf Club, Rathfarnham on Friday 4th June 2010.

The family and friends of Jack McCauley took part in this year's Belfast City Marathon on Monday 3rd May 2010 to raise funds for Cystinosis research. Fifteen of them took part in relays - and fifteen members, Teams Cystinosis A, Cystinosis B and Cystinosis C all finished. Their official time was 5 hours 34 minutes. Well done everyone.
Not only did they have the satisfaction of the personal achievement of completing a Marathon, they also raised the amazing sum of €3,220.
Very special thanks to the team members:
Adrian Hughes, Nicola Hughes, Leigh Keyes, Roger King, Gillian McCauley, William McCauley, William McCauley Snr., Amanda McDonald, Chris McDonald, Natasha McDonald, Mark Parr, Andrea Trainor, Catherine Trainor, Conor Trainor, Liam Trainor, Samantha Waite

THE SHAVE finally took place on 1st April, also at Shelbourne Park.
Stephen braved the blade during our Night Out at Shelbourne Park. He was brave enough to let his wife, Carole shave him. However, the nerves were starting to kick in by the time she produced the cut-throat razor so a certain amount of Dutch Courage was needed before she could start.
It as all worth it though, he raised the amazing amount of €1,966 - coincidentally 1966 was the year he was born - and the last
year he did not have a moustache! He asked us to pass on his thanks to all who sponsored him, and a special thanks to Susan Wilkes for all her effort on his behalf.
Update: Stephen has received another donation of €50, so his grand total stands at €2,016 - a staggering amount.

4th July 2009 saw the culmination of our most challenging fundraiser yet. Seven weary men arrived at the Red Lion, Preston after walking 100 miles in three days. They had been joined on the last day by three more weary travellers who stepped out the last 33 miles with them.

On the same day the waters of the Salthill prom were getting pounded in aid of Cystinosis too.
