A grand day out ? with Dave Ryall

This will consist of; Breakfast at Bernies, followed by a Dales caving trip of the winners choice (I'll pack, derig and wash ropes afterwards) and evening meal in the Helwith Bridge. Transport for the day included. If the winner fancied it, they could have a 'try cave diving' day where they would get to try on the gear and we could have a dive somewhere safe like Birkwith Canals or do the Rowten though trip. Perhaps a souvenir photo?
I'd rather not use the phrase 'slave for the day', but I guess that's the idea.

How to win it you ask......

At the weekend there will be some blank postcards for you to fill in where you would want to go and why and put a 50p donation in the bucket (optional but would be nice) for cave rescue cas bags and at the agm we pick one out! Good luck really good prize happy thinking time.

There will also be other prizes given out at random
