Dracula Drop Bungee Jump

* a chance to perform a death defying stunt and raise money for the Lifeboat!

RNLI Dracula Drop Bungee Jump * Sat 25 April 2009, Whitby

"Want to experience the ultimate adrenaline rush? Want to fulfil one of your life ambitions? Want to raise some money for the lifesaving service offered by the RNLI's volunteer crews? Then why don't you throw yourself off a platform 160ft over Whitby harbour, with the town and the ruined Abbey as your backdrop?! The RNLI is holding its third annual 'Dracula Drop' on Saturday 25th April 2008.

We invite you to come and have the experience of a lifetime, and support the RNLI, in the beautiful coastal town of Whitby. All we are asking for is a £30 deposit plus £100 minimum sponsorship from each jumper, with all funds raised going directly to the RNLI, which provides a ring of safety around the UK and rescues an average of 21 people every day.

To register for this unique bungee opportunity, please contact Lisa Rutter on 0161 787 8779 or on events_n#rnli.org.uk . All jumpers will receive an RNLI bungee tshirt as well as full fundraising support – and anyone raising over £250 will receive a free DVD of their jump, so you can relive your moment of glory forever!"

If you'd like to volunteer, you can contact Lisa on that UK phone number, or e-mail the address above (obviously you'd replace the # with @ but if I'd not obfuscated it you can guess how much spam she'd get after the spam-bots harvested it).
