The Great Leg Wax. - Sun 3rd April

The Brave Four, Alistair, Fraser, Duncan and Stewart.

On Sunday April 3rd, Alistair Grove-White, Fraser McKay, Duncan Campbell and Stewart Ross are going to get their legs waxed at Union Park! This is to help raise funds for our new Community Coach - Fraser Mckay (2nd from the left).
From August 2011, Fraser will be employed by the SRU and Montrose Rugby for two years to help increase the number of children taking part in rugby in the Montrose area.
The club has to part-fund this and in order to help the process these 4 brave men have offered their legs!
