Darth Bear 15,088 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Made the mistake of posting this in the OT last year where they are all fat lazy bastards. So to get the word out further and hopefully get more to sign up I'm posting it here. Yeah Bear's Den So all you have to do is sign up, pay your fee and walk or run 10 miles in March. Simple really and gives support to a charity that has been severely suffering from a lack of funds lately. You even get a big fat shiney medal. Anyone having a problem with this being here is a dirty taig fenian bastard. https://www.marchinmarch.co.uk/race/march-in-march/ Link to donate https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/DarthBear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I wasn't going to fundraise myself for this one as I do a bit for combat stress in a group and raise money throughout the year. This for me is something that people can easily join in with and use to help raise awareness. Let's face it doing 10 miles in a month is a piece of piss. However I will set something up if people on here are willing and wanting to donate and will post my wee walk. Hopefully people sign up though, costs £20 and £15 goes directly to combat stress. Anyone fund raising with it can get themselves a few goodies too by reaching certain thresholds. Wouldn't want to take away from Erksine though so I will leave it up to you lot if you think I should make it a fundraiser. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuistraHairDo 12,489 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Yass big Darth thrown his frame about the Bears Den with no fucks given Hope this goes well for you big man and gets that little bit more exposure it deserves If I’m to do this I want the 10 mile route you take with a full itinerary of all pubs on said route jesting aside seeing as it’s in the Bears Den why not ask Rangers if you could do your ten mile around the pitch at Ibrox with like minded ppl. You never know if you don’t ask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1690tamRFC 5,001 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Brilliant mate, it’s an absolutely amazing organisation and one my wife used to work directly with when she was a housing and addiction support officer for Glasgow’s helping Hero’s. that’s fantastic that you do so much for them with your spare time and I can’t imagine that people would have a problem donating, I can’t speak for others but I certainly would. I’ll speak to the wife and get us signed up also. Great effort mate, you’ve my total respect. each year the misses takes time off her work to raise money for the British legion and the amounts raised are always staggering, especially the collection tins from the louden and around the stadium. We all could easily do our bit but it’s easy to excuse it by life getting in the way. We always do a couple of the Rangers charity foundation things each year, and as much as every little helps many, I say I’ll do more then don’t. Your effort is no doubt appreciated as much as I’ve no doubt you don’t do it for recognition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know if you don’t ask. I'd leave the Ibrox one to those in the UK but good shout. The pub one could also be fun but not sure of a route that I can do here with that. Apart from running back and forth between villages Get yourself signed up and encourage your mates. Would be willing to add to the challenge if folks on here want to donate. 22 pressups every mile or something like that. The more people that do it the more publicity and hopefully the more money raised. It's as much about awareness to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Bear 15,088 Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 Spoke to @Zetland and waiting on @govanblue but if all the raffle tickets are sold then possibly no worries on a fundraiser here. Need to stress that the priority here is Erskine and this would just be a wee bonus but I'm willing to set up a fund raising link if you guys want it. Will try and make it more intersesting than just a wee 10 mile walk, ideas appreciated. Obviously doing nothing till I get the go ahead from those mentioned.

You can do it over the whole month. So easily done walking to work for example. It is basically set up so that just about anyone could do it regardless of fitness or spare time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Bear 15,088 Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Right then I've got round to signing up and setting up a fundraising page so if anyone wants to support Combat Stress this way instead of getting off their arses they can. Of course you can do both Planning a route now, trying to get a few pubs in on the way of course. Will be a week or two before I actually do it, I'll keep you posted.

Darth Bear 15,088 Posted March 5, 2020 Author Share Posted March 5, 2020 Route planned round the back roads through a couple of villages. Couple of pubs along the way for refreshments. Hopefully the locals don't kidnap me and sell me to mad torturers. First donation already in from a lovely, charming and beautiful person. So don't be ugly and chip in or sign up you know that it is a good cause. Planning on doing it next Friday at the moment so hopefully it doesn't piss it down. Will bump the thread a couple of times before then to keep it in mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
