Market Rasen Rotarians turned out in force to act as marshals at a recent event at the Market Rasen Racecourse which you might like to put on the web or preferably into Link. This was an event where over 1000 local women participated in a Race for Life, the biggest women’s sporting endeavour that raises millions for Cancer Research UK. The women walked or ran round the 5km course; many of them ran to remember family and friends who had died of cancer.

Half of the members of the Market Rasen Rotary Club turned out to act as marshals and the event went extremely smoothly. The organisers were delighted with the £150,000 that is expected to have been raised especially as it had to have been cancelled on two previous occasions due to appalling weather.
