Town fans sign up for ‘The Chapman Trail’
An amazing 270 people have signed up to take part in the Pink Link Pedal for Pounds 5: Chapman Trail bike ride in aid of the ‘Keep It Up’ campaign!
The Club’s fifth annual fundraising bike ride will see supporters and staff take to their bikes once again, this time cycling from Arsenal’s Emirates Stadium, through Cambridge, Leicester and Doncaster and back to Huddersfield in time for the Club’s last home game against Leicester City on Saturday 26 April 2014.
The event raises money for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and the Huddersfield Town Academy. Last season’s P4P4: Tour of Yorkshire ride in May 2013 raised an a staggering £190,000 for the campaign.
Huddersfield Town’s Supporter Partnerships Manager Robyn Deegan commented:
“It is amazing to see such a high number of people signing up to get involved with the Pink Link Pedal for Pounds 5. What is even more pleasing is that 40% of the entrants are brand new and have never taken part in a P4P event before!
“We are very close to reaching the £1 million target now and with the help of the cyclists, as well as all those who have donated or taken part in a ‘Keep It Up’ event, it won’t be long before we hit it.”
The deadline to sign up for the ride was Friday 24 January 2014.
There are sponsorship opportunities available on the ride - for details on how you can get your company’s logo seen please email mark.jacobs@htafc.com or call 01484 484125.
