BATTLE OF THE BULGE CHALLENGE
In July, Littleborough Club Member, Harry Hawksworth became Lions District Governor, covering Clubs throughout Lancashire and Cumbria.
Harry was discussing this appointment with the Mayor of Rochdale, Councillor Keith Swift. They were musing on the number of dinners that each would attend during their respective years in Office. From that came the idea of having a Weight Challenge with the proceeds going to charity.
The idea is that during the time of this challenge, people will be able to donate money towards the target charity. A joint account has been opened at the Littleborough branch of the Yorkshire Bank and the account name is Battle of the Bulge Challenge
Sort Code 050565, Account Number 38277774.
If Lion Harry wins the challenge the charity money will go to the Brittle Bone Society, while a victory for Rochdale's Mayor will see the money go to his
charities, the Back Door Music Project, Rochdale Music Service, and Rochdale Youth Orchestra.
If, somehow, either contender manages to lose weight over the 12 months then the money will be split between the charities.
