The Scotwaste Monarchs have embarked on a winter exercise to raise ?20,000 of ?new money' for the club ? to try to avoid the kind of deficit which has hit them this season.

A start was made at Saturday's annual dinner dance with an auction of Ryan Fisher's PLRC race jacket, a special ?double draw' and input from the fuel fund coming close to 10% of the target!

Memorabilia is being sold on ebay (any items which can be donated would be gratefully received) and there will be a new drive shortly to bring in new sponsorship money.

All ideas of new sponsors or advertisers welcome and we'd be happy to support any other fundraising ideas.
