The Venue – Epsom Sports Club (Google Map)

Dan’s Beer Run started as a low key idea to raise money for The Royal Marsden. After a great first year the second year seemed to snowball into something a bit bigger and with this came the need for a new venue. The Family Walk event we introduced last year came about because parents taking part often had partners and kids waiting for them to finish. With this in mind the Family Walk or Dan’s Juice Run was created to offer a chance for more people to get involved. When 120 people tuned up for that event we realised we had inadvertently stumbled on a great way to involve families and kids into the event. Suddenly we need a place that could cater for larger numbers and that would also allow us to safely host a large number of children and create the family themed after party that we wanted.

So as a result of this we are really excited to have secured Epsom Sports Club as our venue this year. It gives us our own bar, a venue we can work together with, space for bouncy castles and for the kids to roam about and importantly the chance to support a club that serves the local community so well. The venue creates some small logistical challenges in that our routes need modifying and we do not start and finish up on the downs but we think it will really push Dan’s Beer Run on and create an awesome family party to coincide with the individual events themselves. It also gives us that vital wet weather protection should the elements turn against us! Our aim this year is to provide food trucks, a BBQ, an ice cream van, two bouncy castles and a few other things for the kids to make sure they are kept entertained. We will also have full use of the bar meaning you should be able to quench your thirst after a tough day in the hills. Hopefully there is something for everyone!

To enter this event we request a £5 ticket for one adult and one child or a £10 ticket for a family (up to two adults and three kids). Tickets will be checked on entry. If you happen to be coming with more people than the family ticket covers then please buy extra tickets as required. Money will be used to put on children’s activities, cover bar staff costs and any profit will go to The Royal Marsden.

We hope the Family Party will be a great addition to the day and look forward to seeing lots of you there.
