supportersSaturday 31st August 2024 is the 25th Running of the Scottish Coal Carrying Championships. Please help us keep this event alive !
by Michael Boyle in Kelty, Fife, United Kingdom
The Coal Race was held for 21 consecutive years from 1995 onwards. Sadly, the event had not been able to go ahead for 3 years due to lack of funding & COVID.
But it came back with a bang in 2021 , 2022 and 2023 and we want to keep the momentum going as it was much missed by the Kelty & ex Mining community. So in 2024 , we dearly hope to raise enough funds to keep the event running. A date has been set (Saturday 31st August 2024), and sources of key funding have been approached. But this year is Year 25 so we will have 3 days of events for a great Weekender
This is a formidable feat, however, we will still need to raise funds to carry us over the finishing line and ensure we can put on a successful event. Which is where your help comes in.........
