MARK BENEVOLENT FUND WALK SWEEPSTAKE WINNER ANNOUNCED
 
Those who attended the Provincial meeting at Southport on 3rd May will remember the Sweepstake which was being promoted as a fund raiser for the Mark Benevolent Fund Walk held in London on the 6th May.
 
The sweepstake raised £132.00 with times being sold in one minute slots.
 
The time taken for the 6 team members to complete the walk was 3 hours 7 minutes and 43 seconds.
 
I am pleased to announce that the winner was Bro. Stephen Hallam of Leyland Mark Lodge No. 1002 who takes the prize of £75.00 for having correctly guessed the time of 3 hours 7 minutes.
 
The unlucky runner up, with 3 hours 8 minutes, was V.W.Bro. Michael Southworth P.G.J.O. of Jubilee  Mark Lodge No. 375.
 
On behalf of the Provincial Grand Master, R.W.Bro. Keith Beardmore and all the team who took part in the walk may I thank all you who supported the sweepstake which has contributed a further £57.00 to the donation from West Lancashire Mark Province.
 
The current total raised from all Provinces for the MBF Walk stands at £379,566.01 which is a magnificent amount with still more donations to be recorded.
