Hebridean Marathon Weekend - THANK YOU Dear Sponsor’s, supporters and volunteers I write on behalf of the organisational committees of the above events in thanks for the tremendous community support throughout all these events. Without the sponsorship, support and volunteer work from the wider community SRAC and Sport Harris would not have enjoyed the degree of success the three events turned out to be! The normal means of thanks would be to write individual letters to all concerned; I hope that in expressing our gratitude in the following format, you will all see what a great community effort this has been! Yours sincerely and indebted to you all!
