Reconnect with Columba - join us for a ridge walk!

Dear Columba Graduates and Friends of Columba,
The Columba staff team invites you and your friends/family to join us in a Ridge Walk from the Old Man of Storr to the Fairy Glen. We have also invited people in our local community to support us on this walk too.
This will be an opportunity to reconnect with friends and memories; to re-explore your Core Values (whilst walking up the Storr) and to share with us and the community what has been happening for you since your academy.
We are hoping to raise £1,500 in order to invite at least one young person up onto a Young Person’s Leadership Academy. Any sponsorship or donations you can gather will go directly towards this. In addition, every mile walked by each person will help the Columban staff team to raise funds by eliciting match funding per mile walked from local businesses.
The walk will take place on Saturday 23rd August and will take about seven hours to complete.
The walk is approximately 18km (7 miles) and will end with a BBQ at the Fairy Glen to celebrate our achievement!
Transport will be provided both at the starting and finishing points. A £5 entry fee would contribute to BBQ and transport costs.
Please RSVP by the 4th July so that we can send you out more detailed information and a sponsorship form. We encourage you to make your own travel/accommodation arrangements, however if that is a barrier to your involvement, please let us know and we will do our best to support that.
Thanks very much,
We look forward to you hearing from you!
Yours,
Roxy Rocks-Engelman
