A Team from Protolabs called the Proto Paddlers are taking part in the Severn Hospice Dragonboat Challenge on Saturday 22^nd July, which will be taking place on the River Severn in Shrewsbury.  The Proto Paddlers will race other teams along the river in 40ft Dragonboats to the beat of a drum to help raise funds for the Severn Hospice and doing it in fancy dress!  Family and friends are all welcome on the day to show support to the Proto Paddlers.  The races will take place between 10am – 3pm on the on the banks of the River Severn,  Shrewsbury opposite the Quarry.  We would love to see you all to help, support and encourage the team and be a part of a great day. 

Severn Hospice gives specialist care and support,  free of charge to families across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and Mid Wales who are living with an incurable illness.  They support families through the good days and bad days because they believe that when cure is no longer possible, care is. They have given free care and support to more than 34,000 people and their loved ones during their time of greatest need. They help more than 2,000 local people every year.  The Hospice is not part of the NHS, but are a completely independent charity, having to raise around two-thirds of their running costs and we at Protolabs want to help them by taking part in this event

However much you can give to help and support the team and raise money for such a wonderful cause, will be much appreciated

Thank you from Protolabs
