Auction: Hospitality for Raith match on 4 May

[Stanza]

Dunfermline Athletic Heritage Trust have been given two Gold Hospitality tickets for the Raith v Hibs match on 4 May. These are being auctioned to help pay the costs of taking two soldiers from the Army Personnel Recovery Unit to France as part of the centenary commemorations for the Battle of the Somme on 1 July. Many sportsmen served and died in 16th Royal Scots ("McCrae's Battalion"), and Hibs and Raith Rovers will also have delegations at the events in France, organised through McCrae's Battalion Trust.

The face value of the tickets is £160. What you would get is:

Reserved car parking

Greeting by Match Day Host
Behind-the-scenes tour (optional - must be requested in advance)
Hostess table service
Champagne on arrival
Official match programme & team sheet for every guest
Pre/post match pay bar
3 course meal complemented by wine
Reserved seating in Main Stand
Half-time hot & cold snacks accompanied by tea & coffee

THE AUCTION CLOSES 5pm ON MONDAY 2 MAY.

The two tickets were won with a winning bid of £100, well below the face value but a welcome addition to the Heritage Trust's funds.

Many thanks to the Board of Raith Rovers for their generosity.
