Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

31st October 2012

This dark and very wet Wednesday evening saw all 10 potential new team recruits put through their final (third part) session of our 2012 recruitment intake.

A testing navigation exercise was undertaken throughout Lever Park, Rivington commencing at 19:50 hours and finishing around 22:00 hours.

We are pleased to report all 10, operating in pairs, managed to successfully navigate their way round the challenging course, planned by our training officer Elaine Gilliland and Mike Marsh.

All 10 will now commence their probationary training with the team on Wednesday 7th November completing their 8 probationary sessions on Wednesday 16th January 2013.

The whole team membership wishes all ten a happy stay with the team and good luck with their probationary period.
