600kms to cover, 12 teams confirmed, 6 days of competition, 4 people per team, 3 core disciplines…only 2 weeks to go!!
The Mark Webber Pure Tasmania Challenge is almost upon us, the competitors are pumped and the anticipation is rising; who is going to win? Will everyone finish? And most importantly, how much funds will we raise for the kids? It's now even easier for you to help us support Mark's two Australia-based nominated charities for 2006; TLC For Kids and the Cancer Council Tasmania's Cancer Plus program, with the launch of the Online Donations Facility today.
Visit the MWPTC website to pledge your support to the beneficiaries and Mark's worthy cause, which in his words is 'doing something special for sick Aussie kids and their families'. All donations of any size are hugely appreciated and will go directly to the Mark Webber Challenge Foundation for distribution to the nominated charities at the close of the event.
What if you can't do it online? Then cheques are most welcome too. Please make your cheque out to the 'Mark Webber Challenge Foundation' and send it C/o - sparkimpact, 109 York Street, South Melbourne, VIC 3205, Australia, along with your name and address details, and we can post you a receipt if you request one.
Don't forget to keep an eye on the Mark Webber Challenge.com website for up-to-date information on the event or your favourite team - and subscribe to the mailing list to receive daily leaderboards and reports during the race!
