| Five
members of Cheltenham Rotaract successfully
completed a Three Peaks Challenge in 21 hours 54
minutes 26 seconds after six months training. In
the process, £1500 has been raised for the
Salter's Hill Trust and the National Meningitis
Trust. Starting
at 1600hrs, Thursday 29 June, the team walked up
and down, and travelled between, the three
highest peaks in mainland UK - BEN NEVIS, SCAFELL
PIKE and SNOWDON in less than 24 hours.
The team of Juliet
Smith, Andrew Yendole, Tom Carver, Sarah Stevens
(Club President) and James Black (incoming Club
President) completed the challenge in a time that
even they didn't expect. The team was ably
supported by two Rotarians from Cheltenham North
Rotary Club who acted as the team's drivers, and
expressed the walkers between the peaks.
