DECEMBER RUN AND CHRISTMAS PARTY!
Saturday 7th December sees Black Lodge host Mikkeller Running Club Liverpool’s monthly run, which also forms our Christmas party!
Runners are welcome to meet at Black Lodge from 11.30, where you can leave any belongings securely. Following a short briefing at 11.50, we will head out at 12 noon for a leisurely 5km run and take in Liverpool’s fantastic waterfront. The run will end at Black Lodge, where each runner will receive a complimentary beer – with festivities kicking off at 1pm.
Feel free to bring your friends and family along join for the festivities. Black Lodge is family friendly – kids and dogs are welcome. We will have space set aside, with activities to keep any little ones entertained!
CHARITY FUNDRAISER
Mikkeller Running Club Liverpool has developed a proud partnership with Love, Jasmine. Established in 2016, Love, Jasmine is a Liverpool-based charity, set up to assist bereaved families who have suffered the loss of a child. All funds raised at the event will go to Love, Jasmine and help them continue to reach out to those who require their support.
CAKE BAKE
How can you celebrate without cake?! Our club pastry chefs will be cooking up some treats for everyone to get stuck into. From cupcakes to brownies, we have enjoyed many baked treats at our previous events thanks to our talented bakers.
RAFFLE
Everyone loves a good raffle! And even more so when there are beer related items to be won. Many local businesses have kind donated fab prizes! Beers, bar tabs and gift vouchers can be won on the day. Beers, bar tabs and gift vouchers can be won on the day courtesy of our good from breweries and bars across the city.
GUESS THE WEIGHT
We also have a bottle of local gin to be won courtesy of The Little Taproom on Aigburth Road, as the hugely popular ‘Guess the weight’ returns once again! Following the launch of this competition at our second anniversary event featuring a melon, various fruits and vegetables have played a starring role. Join us on the day to see what item will take centre stage on the scales!
TOMBOLA
Introduced at our most recent anniversary event, this classic game proved very popular! Spin the golden drum and pull out a raffle ticket for the chance to win SiS energy gels, bath salts to aid weary legs – or even a beer.
SELFIE COMPETITION
We still have our selfie frame! We’re having a selfie competition. All you need to do is take a selfie using the frame, post to Twitter, Instagram or Facebook – or all three… and tag both MRC Liverpool and Black Lodge in the posts using the hashtag #MRCLiv. The Black Lodge team will pick the winner who will receive a taproom bar tab – anything goes, just give us an entertaining selfie!
AUCTION
Another staple of our charity events is the auction! We have got hold of a few items courtesy of Mikkeller Running Club’s Copenhagen HQ to auction off amongst other items, including sports memorabilia!
These events really are good fun. It will be great to have as many people involved as possible on the day to help raise important funds for such an important small local charity.
We look forward to welcoming you along!
