15/11/06 Our new gym is complete! The Gym which forms the centrepiece of Phase 2 of the Samson Project has recently been finished and comes fully equipped with £100k’s worth of equipment, courtesy of a University. Plans are now being drawn up for Phases 3 & 4 for Landscaping and further Treatment Rooms respectively. 09/06/06 Putting their best feet forward! Pam Campbell and a group of friends put their bodies on the line – quite literally: they took part in a sponsored line dancing class and exhibition at St. Mary's Church Hall, Fetcham in aid of the Samson Centre. The intrepid dancers can be seen here, looking remarkably fresh considering the physical effort – and the mental concentration required to remember both the moves themselves and the sequence in which they must be performed! "Pam’s People" raised £500 for the Centre. Rock on, ladies! 08/01/06 SALVESTRO to carry our hopes for 2006 Following the success of the Samson Quest racing partnership, the MS Therapy Group (Guildford) has joined forces with ‘Horses for Causes’ (H4C), who are offering our supporters the chance to become shared owners of ‘Salvestro’ for the coming flat season and raise much-needed funding for the new Samson Centre. H4C partners will receive: • A share of all prize money won • Monthly newsletter • PIN access to the members’ section of the www.horsesforcauses.com website • Trainers hospitality, including visits to all H4C stables • Complimentary Owners pass for each run • Entry to the parade ring • A distinctive H4C lapel pin • A complimentary ticket to annual H4C dinner • Fun and sociability – guaranteed! Salvestro is a three year old colt by 1st season sire Medicean out of the Listed and Cambridgeshire winner Katy Nowaitee and will be trained by Amanda Perrett at Pulborough, West Sussex. The share cost for the horse’s first season (1st Jan until 31st Oct 2006) is £3,154 including a minimum deposit of £850. Subscriptions may be made by one-off payment, part payment + monthly instalments or all monthly instalments by arrangement.(Note: Subscribers are offered 5% shares, or multiples thereof, up to a maximum stake per household of 20% in ‘Salvestro’). The fee covers the purchase of that share and all expenses until the end of October 2006. The second season charge will be very similar but without the cost of the horse, and may be significantly reduced by prize money won during the first year.
