Story

Location: Strathearn Campus Crieff Date: 4th & 5th May 2013 Time:10am - 4pm We were asked by Alan and Ruth following the tragic loss of one of their 19 month old twin girls to help them to raise money for the Meningitis Trust in her memory Alexis Rose, was a beautiful baby girl and at 19 months old she died very suddenly of meningitis in 2011. We are holding a two day Football Festival, Fun Fours for 2006 & 2005 age group, 7aside for 2004, 2003 & 2002 age group,11 aside for 2001 and 2000 age group and a girls section. There will be a medal for every child that takes part and a Fairplay trophy for each age group. This event will be for the whole Family, with stalls, bouncy castle, face painting, hotshots, Coerver skills taster sessions, beat the goalie etc.. We are asking many local businesses to support this event by donating prizes for the Tombola stall and sponsoring the event so far they have been superb. We still need more though, as the more we get the more money we can raise for the Alexis Rose tribute fund and help the family reach their goal of £40,000.
