govanblue 16,847 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Good Deed - Member Donation - Whisky for ErskineA big thank you to Soldierblue1 for donating a bottle of whisky to Erskine yesterday. Another fine specimen - Aberlour 10 year old Single Malt. I'll hopefully be collecting another couple of bottles from a member on Wednesday, so that should give us a total of 12 bottles.

govanblue 16,847 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Happy to report that the 14 Residents from Erskine and 2 from Combat Stress enjoyed the game yesterday. I'm hoping to get some more tickets for them for Wednesday's game - but that might be easier said than done, given the expected booking chaos.

govanblue 16,847 Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Fund Action - Member Donation - Rangers Gym BagsI forgot to mention that last week we donated 60 Rangers Gym Bags to the Rangers Girls Squads.These bags (and many more) were donated by a Loyal Fund Member.Anyone who has bought anything from Mrs Eagle's Rangers Charity Shop probably received one as a free gift. They're great. And we gave a pile to Erskine who have found several uses for them.We gave the Rangers Girls about 30 last season,And now we've given the Girls the last 60 that we had - so that should hopefully be enough for one each. So thanks again to the Loyal Fund Member, who donated all the bags. Particulary after all the costs and difficulties he had getting them to me. (All my fault if I remember correctly) - It was worth it in the end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
