Exmoor Rotary Challenge
This is an annual competition
between two Rotary Districts, 1170 and 1200. Two routes are provided,
most do the longer one of about 12 miles.
The Rotary Exmoor Challenge is also a gentle competition between
Rotary Districts 1170 and 1200 for the Rotary Challenge Shield. Rotarians
and their families and friends from each district earn one point for
completing the 7 mile walk or two points for completing the 12 mile
walk. The Governor of the district with the most points formally receives
the Shield at a club meeting. However, non-Rotarians are very welcome to join in the walk (pre-booking essential) to increase sponsorship money for Children's Hospice South West. Please GIFT AID the sponsorship and donations if you are a UK tax-payer.
