50th Anniversary

This day is a celebration and day of remembering 50 years of magic. It is a day to remember the people who gave us such wonderful days and memories.

The Flying Toad Challenge

Flying Toad Challenge

What is it?

The Flying Toad challenge is going to be a fun exercise for our members to take part in on the 50th anniversary day, whether they attend the 50th or not. We have 100 little plastic toads ready to be given a name and character profile. sponsored by our members and then launched into the challenge on the day.

The Flying Toad Challenge

The cost per toad is £2 and this will go back into prize money for the winner, runner up etc. There is also a trophy that you can add to your garden!

On the day

On the day, the sponsor will be required to compete with another sponsor, by launching your toad via a sling shot – not an ordinary sling shot – but a sling shot that requires you to sit down with the sling shot fired between your legs as in the water bomb sling shot! Not very elegant. But bound to be fun and entertaining!

The process

The toad that lands the furthest distance away, will be put into the next round with the loser set aside. This process will continue until we get down to the final two toads and we will find our eventual winner then.

Slingshot

To sponsor your toad, please fill in the form and submit, then make your payment and then your Toad's name and profile will be displayed on the site for all to see!
