Sean Keogh from pteppic.net, and his friend and colleague Geoff Campbell from Internetworking Ltd, have been accepted as one of the official teams in next year's Macmillan 4x4 Challenge. You can sponsor the team by going to http://www.justgiving.com/teamyokel

This is a multi-day event combining navigation skills, on and off-road driving, regularity trials and all in all two and a half days of very hard work, in aid of the Macmillan Cancer Care charity.

The next event runs from the 6th to the 8th March 2009, and will be the eighth challenge to be run. This year there will be sixty teams taking part, and we hope to be able to beat the totals raised for charity over the past couple of years. The amount raised for the charity for the 2008 event has just been confirmed as reaching £100,000 and we have been told that if the 2009 event manages to reach £75,000 then the total raised since the event began will have exceeded Half a Million Pounds! We want to exceed that by some way, so all donations are welcome!

Please go to http://www.mac4x4.co.uk/ to find out more information about the Challenge and the associated fundraising, or just go straight to http://www.justgiving.com/teamyokel - and donate whatever you can. And please, please tell everyone that you know, so that we can make the 2009 challenge the best yet!
