WOODFORD LIONS AND RADIO 101.5FM SUPPORT TOWER FUND RAISER

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Having successfully prevented the demolition of the Jimna Fire Tower in the short term,  the Jimna Fire Tower Action Group JFTAG is now focusing on the original long term  goal of having  this iconic landmark redeveloped into a self funded tourist destination.  To make this happen JFTAG  calls on each and every supporter to add their shoulder to the wheel by purchasing a ticket in our recently launched fund raising appeal raffle. Notices have been sent out and we hope that a good response will  refuel the capacity to  maintain  and to  invigorate the confidence to continue  a strong campaign.
