The Pete Mitchell Memorial Trophy

The fund in memory of Pete Mitchell raised over £1500 - he was a popular man! - and we have now purchased a trophy to present within the Kingston Phoenix in his memory.


We could have bought a bigger one, but don't want it to overshadow the other Club Trophies. The balance of the fund will be kept seperate from the general Kingston Phoenix RC accounts and we propose to come up with other things that he would have approved of to spend the money on.

The first recipient of the trophy is the winner of the last event that Pete attended, just 2 days before he died and we will endeavour to allow as many of the people that contributed to the fund as possible to have a look at the trophy in person - hopefully it will be available for anyone to see at the Barn Dance, and of course for the few of you that attend the Phoenix Dinner.
