The DDMF held their annual car rally recently when the family and friends of the late
Fire fighter Darren raised a sum in excess of £760 from the raffle, tombola, cake stalls, late entries and donations plus a mini auction of donated items with Jim Bowen of Penny’s Place, Coningsby acting as auctioneer.
There were 72 vehicles attending the rally which set off from the Petwood Hotel and enjoyed a road run of approx 25 miles before arriving at their destination Thorpe Camp Visitor Centre.
The Lincolnshire Autistic Society were there with their very popular ‘water & wine’ stall,
The Woodhall Spa fire crew and tender managed their usual appearance to the delight of the crowd plus Coningsby/Tattershall and Woodhall First Responders gave up their time to attend.
Special guest of the day Dr Yvonne Owen, Clinical Director of L.I.V.E.S who incidentally trained Darren as a first responder.
