The Carl F Petersen Charity Paddlers

23rd Jun 2008

For the second year in succession, representatives from Carl F braved the waters of the River Nene to enter a charity dragon boat race.

Seventeen people from the company, including Managing Director John Crittenden and Business Development Manager Bruce Bradshaw, paddled the 250 metre course three times to raise money for their local air ambulance.

Commenting, MD John Crittenden said: "I was delighted to see that so many people from Carl F were prepared to give up their Sunday for charity. It was an excellent day both from the perspective of team building and for the monies we will raise - we are currently collecting donations and are optimistic that we will exceed £1,000."

John and Bruce were joined by members of Carl F's sales, administration and IT teams. Anyone wishing to contribute to the charity can contact Carl F Petersen's sales office on 01536 401155.
