What a great day this turned out to be, over 150 people turned up and enjoyed the eight activities. A big thank you to Tony, Dave and Gregg for the BBQ and also to Steve for the photographs. And the biggest thank you goes to all the volunteers who gave up their time to come in and help out and also enjoy some of the fun.

If you attended the event, could you please leave some feedback as to how you thought the event went.

Here are some of the volunteers setting up camp and members of the public making use of the park during the cold spell.

We wish all our users a very happy New year we hope to see you all again soon.

This is a big thank you to the St Julie’s work placements who have been coming to the Centre this past week.   They came along and helped out on a litter pick organised by Liverpool Sailing Club.  They will be coming back to MYCT next week for their final week of training.  Also young Phil deserves a mention as he kept the day running smoothly.  Thank you.

A HAPPY BIRTHDAY today to MYCT’s founder Bill Whiteside who is celebrating his 80th birthday.

If you know Bill you will know that he does not celebrate the normal way,  he is planning to raft from Liverpool Sailing Club across to New Brighton  with some of his friends.  The raft will be built today ready for the sail tomorrow.  We will of course be putting some photo’s on the the big event.  All past and present staff and volunteers are welcome to support Bill tomorrow at Liverpool Sailing Club, his sail should finish about 3.30.

Congratulations Bill from everyone involved with MYCT.
Please leave a comment to send on your best wishes to Bill.

Raft arrived at Liverpool Sailing Club safe and sound at 15.10 with the ATs (80’s) on board.  Jolly time was had by all, perfect weather for it.  Well done to all the volunteer helpers on the safety boats who have made it a great day out for Bill.  The BBQ is on as I type.

Adrenaline junkies attempted to jump into the Guinness Book of Records to raise money for Merseyside Youth Challenge Trust.

Between Aerial Extreme and MYCT volunteers and staff we managed to raise £217.00 so a big thank you to you all and well done for setting a New Guinness World Record.
