Stockport Eighteen Plus are organising a Charity Pub Treasure Hunt on 31st March. This will be a fun event, which also has the benefit of raising money for a very worthy cause. (This will also generate some good publicity both for Eighteen Plus and your Group should you attend).

All money raised will be donated to "The Rainbow Trust" who run Francis House children`s Hospice.

Those of you with very long memories may remember a similar event in the past which was held very successfully. If your Group is entering a team could you please let us know beforehand, so we will have some idea of numbers.

Even if it's just one or two people who are coming along, then that's fine, as scratch teams will be sorted out on the night (in fact it's an excellent way of getting to know members of other 18 Plus Groups).

5. There is an overall time limit of two hours from when teams leave the 'Little Jack Homer' until they get back. No additional points are given for faster completion's of the route, but teams slower than two hours will have points deducted proportionate to their lateness.
