Why do we have to go up a Welsh mountain. We have plenty of nice ones in The England!

I would really like to do this but just need to make sure I can get to Llanberis at 8:30am. Will probably have to arrange a stay the night before.

Why are Chester fans being charged £40 to raise funds for the club? Any moderately fit person could climb Snowdon,why are a private company charging us silly money to do it? I have been up Snowdon dozens of times and would have led Chester fans up for nothing

I’ll do what I can, and possibly make a few days of it. |

I have been up Snowdon dozens of times and would have led Chester fans up for nothing The cost involves us having experienced mountain leaders, insurance, snacks, medals and certificate. I appreciate what you are saying but we have to first of all consider the safety of all who take part and ensure everyone gets up and down safely. Should you wish to volunteer your services to either help on the day or lead another fundraising event with your expertise, please email fundraising@chesterfc.com Thank you Ed |

Why when anyone organises anything for the club do we have to get childish moans like “that’s too expensive”, “why are we going up a Welsh mountain?” etc.
These things are not easy to organise and while suggestions are always welcome, there’s a certain tone some people present their argument with that comes across as an attempt to be irritating rather than helpful. It’s draining, and will put people off the idea of organising anything.

Low sign up for this event so far. Please if you plan to do this event, sign up by the end June at the latest to avoid us having to cancel.
The fundraising team are adding various events over the coming months but they need to be supported.
Lack of support will only lead to one thing!!!
Thanks
Ed

I, like I'm certain everyone else does, do appreciate all the efforts made by the fundraising team but I do think this is another case of going to the same people again and again.
Yes Chester fans do want a football club but fans are being asked to put their hands in their pockets whilst also being asked to buy their season ticket and more than likely put money towards their own family holidays coming up in the next month or two.
The hike is a great idea I just think timing may be wrong, at least financially for some supporters.

With the greatest respect, I think everyone's a bit bored with the 'walk from A to B' fundraising, it was brilliant when we need ways to put money into the club in Jan/Feb, but now it doesn't exactly get people off their seats. Perhaps, try 5 a side games at goals for an annual supporters cup?

People could get sponsored to listen to the greatest "hits" of the Shadows for as long as they could stand it, probably far more arduous than walking up Snowden! |

We have decided to cancel this event at this time due to the lack of interest/sign up.
Thanks
