Pigeons for Parameadows 2010 Fundraiser

A Challenge to pigeon fanciers and friends led by Pig3on.com to sponsor

Race Date – 14th August 2010
RacePoint – Crescent Head, New South Wales
Approx Distance – 410km

Parameadows Special School provides educational programs for children with disabilities in the Illawarra, stretching from Helensburgh to Albion Park. The school facilities are also utilised for after school care and vacation play centre school holidays to serve the needs of special children and their families.

Play is an important part of life, and for children with disabilities this is just as true as it is for everyone else. Play is the language that brings children of different abilities together. Through playing with other children, they develop social skills, learn physical skills, and learn about behaviour, communication, acceptance and friendship.

In 2010 The SCF Inc is donating its fundraising to this Special School. In the past 3 years The SCF has raised in excess of $75,000 for Charities and Childrens Hospitals and we hope this year will be the same.

Hopefully i98fm will once again be the major sponsor.. www.i98fm.com.au

The target will be $10,000 and hopefully be matched once again by BHP

i.  The Race is to be flown from the 2nd Crescent Head and the charity will be Para

achieve the $10,000 target

Last year our old forum Pigeontalk.org raised near $600 for the school, a tremendous effort.

This year we are seeking help from our members to once again dig deep so we can sponsor a team or two in the 2010 event which will help out ParaMeadows Special School and their ongoing commitment to our kids with disabilities.

A great cause
