KECC announce new 3 year sponsorship deal

The club is proud to announce a new three year sponsorship deal with Wensleydale Brewery. Wensleydale will be the main club sponsor for the next three seasons from 2012 to 2014. During that time, the club will display the Wensleydale logo on their playing and training shirts and, more importantly, drink copious amounts of their delicious beer throughout the season. Visit the Wensleydale Brewery website for more information about their fantastic range of cask and bottled beers.

Both the club and Wensleydale Brewery look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.

Cheers!!

The 100 mile - 8 hour cycle challenge

KESWICK to KIRKSTALL... THE LAKES to LEEDS SOLO BIKE RIDE

SATURDAY JUNE 30, 2012 - 5AM TO 1PM (hopefully!)

Vic Gibson - dad of KECC player Joe Gibson - will set off on a bike from his home in Keswick in the Lake District at 5am and try to cycle all the way to Leeds.

His aim is to arrive at KECC in time for the start of our first-team fixture at home to Ben Rhydding at 1pm, which gives him exactly 8 hours to complete the 100-mile ride.

It is worth pointing out that Vic will be 52 years of age - and weighing it at around 16 stone - when he attempts to tackle the Lakeland fells, Yorkshire dales and Pennines!

With this in mind, we are asking players, members and friends of KECC to support Vic by sponsoring him to complete his fund-raising ride.

And in the spirit of the challenge, please offer to donate double the amount if he arrives in time to see the first ball of the game bowled.

All proceeds will go to KECC to provide funds for an electronic scoreboard at the Field of Dreams.

Look Whats Happening at the FOD

Guys some of you will not be aware of things that are happening down at the FOD so here are just a few photos so that you can see. 

A few weeks ago Andy took down the canopy from above the bar -which instantly gave a feeling of more space and brightness.

Last weekend a working party -not sure of the members- did and excellent job of giving behind the bar and the beer cellar a thorough clean -hence the shelves lent up against. today the service engineer came to fit new multi head beer pumps. The whole bar now looks a lot smarter and I am sure will be a lot easier to work and a pleasure to drink at.

Well done to all concerned!!!

After getting quotes in and then revamping them to see where we could cut cost it became obvious that we could not afford to upgrade the toilets as we wanted. So Rashers and Andy have put together numerous grant applications in hope we can get the funding required. As an interim measure we have started to board up and re paint at very little cost to the club, this should see us through till hopefully we get the funding needed.

Ross Telfer is doing some voluntary work as part of his Uni course and has chosen the club to do it at.

Well done Ross.

Magnolia

Still a board for Ross to do.

Paints still wet on this photo

Not sure why we have two Boddingtons pumps when we sell John Smiths.

Moving forward
