Dark Star 24/7

Our local and beloved Dark Star Brewery are holding a Charity Bike/Run event on Sunday 21st July 2013. You can either run 7m or cycle 24m – both routes have a pub pit stop halfway and then there is a BBQ after at the Partridge Pub for those that fancy a bit more in the way of refreshment afterwards. While this is NOT a Henfield Joggers organised event, we thought it might be fun to try and coordinate meeting up if enough people are interested – if you want to participate, then book your place direct with Dark Star organiser – but after booking if you’d like to join the group then Email either Gill or Liz: gehamiltonorr@gmail.com or lizpamment@gmail.com.

The Dark Star 24/7 is the first event to be run by the newly formed Dark Star Foundation and takes place on July 21st this year.

Anyone and everyone is invited to join the sponsored journey, starting at the Dark Star Brewery in Partridge Green, following a round-trip before returning to the Partridge pub for a BBQ and well-earned rest.

Cyclists will take on the 24-mile return journey to Shoreham, whilst walkers/runners will tackle a 7-mile route to Wineham, stopping for refreshments at The Duke of Wellington, Shoreham and The Royal Oak, Wineham before embarking on the journey home.

Monies raised will go towards ‘The Dark Star Foundation,’ created by the brewery to ‘Support & Inspire’ by working alongside, and helping, good causes. It will work in three key areas: providing funds to pubs to assist in their fundraising effort, provide seed funding for tomorrow’s entrepreneurs, issue funds to good causes / charities.

James Cuthbertson of Dark Star commented: “The 24/7 event is a great excuse to get out in the fresh air, make new friends and have fun, not to mention sharing a beer at the end of our spoils and raise funds for the Foundation”.

Adding: “What we’re asking people to do is pay £15 entry (under 16 free). For that, all adults will get a Dark Star Foundation t shirt, coffee on arrival and beer upon arrival back at The Partridge. Participants can help us raise further funds by getting sponsored, with all funds raised going to the Dark Star Foundation.
