PomPrint Towel Bales

New Season – New Prizes

Now that we have had more than two successive days with temperatures staying on the positive size of the Celsius scale, we at PomPrint have declared it springtime at last.

With the arrival of the new season, we have decided that we should give a spring clean to our prize cupboard, and introduce something more appropriate to the glorious Scottish summer, and what could be more appropriate than towels?

For the spring and summer months, we are changing the fortnightly prize for our ‘Location Puzzler’ competition from the highly successful range of Quadra bags, to beautiful, soft bales of towels, to use on the beach, or to dry yourself off after taking a shower to cool down, after a day in the blistering summer heat here in Northeast Scotland. You could even use them to dry yourself in the unlikely even that you get stuck in a shower.

The towel bales come in a choice of 3 colours, Aqua, Fuchsia and White and comprise:-

PomPrint Towel Bales
Description Width Height
Washing Glove 16 cm 22 cm
Guest Towel 30 cm 50 cm
Hand Towel 50 cm 100 cm
Bath Towel 70 cm 140 cm
Bath Sheet 100 cm 180 cm
PomPrint Towel Bales

PomPrint Towel Bales, available in 3 colours, are the new prizes for our fortnightly competition in conjunction with Waves Radio.

To tie in with the towel theme, we have also supplied Waves with Dressing Gowns to give away as prizes on Brian Daniel’s AM2PM show, which airs daily from 10am to 2pm on 101.2 FM. Why not tune in to Brian’s show and see if you can win one for yourself?

We hope that you like our towel bales, which have a RRP of £35, and hope that you will take a look at our new season of Location Puzzler competitions, starting on here on Monday.

Peterhead Relay for Life 2013

As a sponsor of Cancer Research UK, PomPrint Designs are pleased to help advertise the Peterhead Relay for Life event on 6th and 7th July on their behalf.

Cancer Research UK PETERHEAD Relay for Life 2013

Peterhead Relay for Life is a charity event organised by volunteers which raises money for Cancer Research UK. Relay for Life is an inspirational 24 hours that brings together Peterhead and the surrounding communities to remember loved ones, honour cancer survivors and most importantly celebrate life! Peterhead is the most successful annual Relay for Life event in the UK and thanks to the support of the local community has raised a staggering £650,000 for Cancer Research UK’s life saving work over the past 7 years.

How Relay Works…

From 11am on Saturday 6th July 2013 until 11am on Sunday 7th, teams will walk round Lord Catto Park in Peterhead in a relay format. Teams can all walk together, in pairs, individually, or can even run if they are feeling energetic but there must be at least one member of each team on the track at any one time. All around us as we walk is a festival of entertainment and activities to keep everyone amused during a truly remarkable 24 hours!

Hope and Inspiration

The Survivors Lap is truly inspirational and testament to the amazing work being done by Cancer Research UK using the money raised by Relay for Life. The Candle of Hope ceremony is an incredibly touching reminder of why we need Relay for Life.

Why not get Involved?

Would you like to enjoy a great weekend with friends? Up for a laugh? Want to try something different and meet some new people? You can do all this and raise cash for a worthwhile cause. Why not take the plunge and enter a team?

For full details visit http://relay.cancerresearchuk.org or talk to one of our committee members for a personal account of their Relay for Life experience. We promise you won’t regret it!

They say a picture says a thousand words so we have put together short photo slideshow which will hopefully give a taste of this truly unique and inspiring event. The slideshow can be viewed below:-

 

It is truly amazing what can happen when lots of people pull together for a good cause!
