The hugely successful Audience with Craig Cook last Friday added a significant sum to our Air Fence Fund total but other contributions have boosted the Fund considerably in the last week.

The Audience with Craig Cook was not only a very enjoyable affair it also added £1549.29 to our Fund total but that was only part of a very good week for the Fund.

Sales of 2014 calendars and the excellent Cookie's Year brochure have been adding to the Fund and with Christmas fast approaching they are both excellent gifts. They are available for sale in the Club Shop and will also be on sale at the Video Show at the Thomas Morton Hall next week.

We have also been looking for sponsors of each of the 33 panels that will form the air fence next season at Armadale and this has created huge interest. We already have firm commitments for 17 of the panels, not only from, what would be considered to be, Monarchs' home territory but also from England and as far away as America. These panels are available through the Club Shop or by direct donation to the Air Fence Fund sort code 11-09-17 Account number 0440805. If you intend to use this method please contact us by email to confirm. Any remaining panels can be purchased at the Video Show next Friday.

We are very pleased to confirm that the Air Fence Fund now stands at £8720.83, just short of 50% of the total required. Thank you all for your support.
