Gamma takes to the road once more for charity

Following the success of last year's banger rally from Newbury to Budapest which raised £50,000 for charity, Gamma is taking to the road once again for Gamma Ball Rally III.

30 teams, comprising Gamma Channel Partners and sponsors Cisco, Polycom and Oak Telecom, are being challenged to drive 500 miles from Newbury to Dublin in cars costing no more than £500.

With en-route visits to the iconic race circuits Thruxton and Mondello Park, this three-day driving adventure will see the teams face a series of fun challenges to compete for points and prizes; such as go-karting, a scavenger hunt, geo-caching and plenty of car-based mayhem along the way.

Starting at Gamma's Newbury offices on Wednesday 17th September, the participants will enjoy overnight stops in Wolverhampton, Dublin and the outstanding 5-star Powerscourt Hotel in Co Wicklow on the 19th September.

The last night of the trip will be celebrated with a charity gala dinner, followed by a prize ceremony and 'money can't buy' auction. 

All proceeds raised from Gamma Ball Rally III will be donated to two very worthy causes - Action Through Enterprise and Honeypot Children's Charity. Each team has donated £500 as an entry fee - all of which will go directly to our nominated charities.

John Haw, Sales Director at Gamma, said: "Building on the huge success of last year's Gamma Ball Rally, we intend this year's to be bigger and better with more cars and more challenges and the ultimate aim of raising even more money for our nominated charities.

"The response we've had so far has been phenomenal, with places fully booked within just two weeks of registration opening. While the main aim is to raise funds for two well-deserved charities, it's also a brilliant opportunity for our Channel Partners and sponsors to spend an enjoyable few days together and hopefully to go down in Gamma Ball Rally history!"
