CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities. This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only. We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund. Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.

For those of you who sponsored my daughter Victoria on the Augusta Ironman (for which she and the Fusilier Aid Society are most grateful) I thought it worthwhile to publish her most creditable results. I doubt whether too many of the recipients of Fusilier News could match the timings, indeed I feel exhausted at the thought!
Event: IRONMAN Augusta 70.3 miles, 28 Sep 2014. Officially now the biggest 70.3 IRONMAN in the world in which 3500 athletes participated.
Course: 1.2 Mile swim in Savannah River, 56 mile cycle in South Carolina, 13.1 mile run around downtown Augusta.
· Goal Time: 6 hours
Actual Time: 5 h 33 mins
- Swim: 27:30 mins
- Transition 1: 3 mins
- Cycle: 2 hrs 53 mins (avg 19.33 mph)
- Transition 2: 6 mins
- Run: 2 hrs 2 mins (avg 9:22 minute/miles)
Total number of Participants: 3500
Age Group (35-39) position: 28th out of 267 participants.
Female Position (inc professional athletes): 136th
Overall Position (including professional athletes, all males and all females): 685th
It is not too late to sponsor Victoria in aid of FAS, simply send a cheque made out to the Fusilier Aid Society to RHQ with a note entitled IRONMAN.

(Webmasters note) What I think the Brigadier is saying sponsor her or I'll send this tuff cookie round Well Done Victoria.
