We want to say thank you wholeheartedly to Brett, Emily and all who showed their kindness and sympathy for Gavin, with the heartfelt tributes and wonderful memorial event. We miss Gavin so much and feel so sad, but the love shown by all, especially Jamie who has become as much of a son and brother to us as Gavin has helped carry us through our darkest days. Thank you all again, love from Elaine, John, Darren, Lisa and Emma. xxx
BMF Sponsored Memorial Event – 17/02/08
Running Total Raised in Memory of Gavin Henshall over £2500
An absolutely massive thank you to all the members and instructors who came to the fundraising sponsored BMF class on Sunday at Bruntwood Park. Everyone enjoyed the day and most members even completed the 217 minute session! Thats 3 hours and 43 minutes!! The best part of the day was saved until last when members got the chance to 'beast' the instructors and they did! Jamie, Matt and Brett got the worst of the members revenge including a crazy pull-up session to finish things off. Everyone was queueing up to give Jamie a taste of his own medicine including Katie McAinsh who brought along a full lesson plan!
We hope you like the photos below, a copy of the full cd is available for £5 from the classes. All proceeds will go to Gavins family who expressed their sincere thanks and gratitude to everyone involved. Please bring any collected sponsorship money to your classes before the end of the month.
A warm hello to all our new members, and well done for sticking in this winter to our existing members.
