Proper Golf Day for Beattie Statue Campaign - Ipswich Town News
A Proper Golf Day raising funds for the statue of Kevin Beattie is taking place at Hintlesham Golf Club on Friday 13th September.
Teams - of three or four - are invited to enter at a cost of £400 with the proceeds going to the The Beat Goes On campaign.
The price also includes a meal after the event in which a number of the Blues' legend's former team-mates will be taking part. You can book a place for your team via the Greshams Ipswich website.
Led by the EADT and Ipswich Star in conjunction with BBC Radio Suffolk and TWTD, The Beat Goes On was launched on December 18th last year on what would have been Beattie’s 65th birthday. The campaign is now around £23,000 off meeting its target.
You can make a donation online via the Go Fund Me page or send a cheque made payable to ‘The Beat Goes On’ to Kevin Beattie Statue Appeal, EADT, Portman House, 120 Princes Street, Ipswich, IP1 1RS.
There are also collection buckets at reception at the EADT’s offices and at BBC Radio Suffolk.
