THE GREAT SPITALFIELDS PANCAKE RACE

SHROVE TUESDAY 24 February 2009

DRAY WALK, OLD TRUMAN BREWERY, BRICK LANE, E1.
at 12.30pm

Get in training for Shrove Tuesday and join in the Great Spitalfields
Pancake Race. All you need to get together is a team of four people
suitably dressed up (or down) to enter in the relay race. Bring your
own frying pan and we'll provide the pancakes. The race will be run
along Dray Walk at The Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane and all you
have to do is toss the pancake a couple of times en route. The heats
will start at 12.30pm followed by the finals and the prize giving.

The winners will receive a beautifully engraved - you've guessed it -
frying pan! The best dressed team will also receive a prize. And there
will be prizes for runners up and scrumptious pancakes for all
entrants.

Music by the Lost Marbles String Band and clowns provided by the E
Team will all lend to the atmosphere of this highly entertaining,
eccentric occasion.

The event is being organised by ALTERNATIVE ARTS in aid of the London
Air Ambulance, registered charity no 801013.

So enter your team now. Please try to get yourselves sponsored or
bring a donation on the day for the charity. Thanks.
