JOE'S CUP
 
 
Club Memorial Run Sunday 10th September 2006 9am. 
There will be a memorial run on Sunday 30th December to visit en route the legendary Joe’s Cup. The run will start at 9 am from White Coppice cricket ground and will be a nice easy pace fell run for an hour to 2 hours and everybody is welcome.
 
As the name suggests we use this as an opportunity to remember the slowly lengthening list of those club members who are now doing sessions in the sky (joined this year by Barry Cadman and John Ramsbottom) – so take a break from your usual routine and find out where Joe’s Cup really is.
 
White Coppice - head for Chorley on the A6 – turn right at the roundabout as you enter Chorley and left at the next one and right at the one after that (all 3 close together).  Follow the road to the next roundabout (1m) and bear right.  Down the hill (1/2m) to the next mini roundabout (opposite a pub) and take the unmarked right just after it.  Follow this rural road for 2m to the next pub and turn right (first sign for White Coppice).  Straight on through village on to rough track to cricket ground.
