Sponsors for the Team Trophies

12 Friday Feb 2016

Hi

Each year the Team Trophies are privately sponsored both for the cost of the prizes and the not inconsiderable cost of postage to various parts of the Commonwealth.

We don’t receive any support from RSGB for this. We depend on donations from various generous individuals.

This year we need more sponsors to chip in small amounts so that we can keep up being able to award these trophies.

So thanks to David, G4HMC. who made a donation today.

Donations can be made to Peter G3LET or Bob G3PJT via PayPal or direct.
