FUNDRAISING
Where does my entry fee go?
Your entry fee and any sponsorship money you raise is for
charity.
Do I need to fundraise for a charity?
We encourage all runners to get sponsored by family and friends. Our
feedback from runners is that it can greatly enhance your
experience.
Is there a minimum sponsorship that I am required to raise?
No. However we suggest £50 is a reasonable target and all best
efforts are appreciated.
How do I send in the money I have raised?
You can send your cheque made payable to Monster Dash to: Monster
Dash, Fylde Coast YMCA, St Albans Road, St Annes on Sea, Lancashire
FY8 1XD.
Please do not send cash in the post – cheques only. Or you can
drop in any cash or cheques raised in person to the St Annes Fylde
Coast YMCA.
Is there a closing date for sending in sponsorship money?
We would appreciate all monies being sent to us by the end of
September 2010.
Are there any prizes for raising the most amount of sponsorship?
Yes! We have some great prizes available to reward those individuals
and schools who get involved in raising sponsorship. And the more
you raise, the better chance you have of winning.
Please see the "Fun Run Incentives" and "Junior
Incentives" under the 'Sponsorship' heading of the website.

ON THE DAY

GENERAL
section on this website.
Where can I park my car?
There is limited, free on-street parking around Stanley Park and at
the Sports Arena.
May I walk the course instead of running?
Yes - but if you plan to walk the whole distance we request that you
allow runners to start in front of you.
Is the course suitable for a wheelchair or pushchair?
The majority of the course is flat.
On the 5Km Run, however, there are slight inclines. For further
guidance please contact us.
Can I take part in fancy dress?
We would be delighted if you did!
Where can I change?
There are changing rooms and toilet facilities at the arena.
Can
I volunteer as a marshal or helper?
Yes please! An event as big as this always takes a large
number of marshals and support staff to make it happen.
If you can spare the time please drop us a line, e-mail us or
telephone 01253 724 117 during normal office hours.
