The Marykirk raft race helps raise money for charities and groups by holding a raft race down the river North Esk, near Marykirk. This years event is on the 16th of May, 2010.
Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 9:20AM We've organised a quiz night for Friday 26rd March at the Marykirk Hotel, starting at 8pm sharp. This was previously advertised as the 19th - apologies - we had to push this back a week.
There will also be a Car Treasure Hunt on Sunday 9th of May, 2010. More details later this week will be published here.
The raft race entry forms are now available from the Marykirk Hotel bar.
Tuesday, January 19, 2010 at 2:08PM We hosted a Race Night at the Marykirk Hotel on Friday 5th February, and we raised over £350 for the Raft Race. Many thanks to all who attended!
Tuesday, January 19, 2010 at 2:06PM We've changed the date of the 2010 raft race back from the 23rd of May, to the THIRD Sunday in May (as is its traditional date) - the 16th of May 2010 - so that we dont clash with a local music event.
Thursday, July 17, 2008 at 9:37PM The Marykirk Raft Race Ceilidh Night was held at the Marykirk Hall, on 28th November 2009. Fifty or so people danced the night away to the Ardmore Ceilidh Band - a professional celidh band from the Isle of Skye, and we raised around £275 for charity.
Many thanks to everyone for making it such a good evening.
The next event will be a race night in early February.
