In the Lent Term of 2017, the Hilton Gents were inspired to take on a challenge. Having listened to the 'Doctors Adrift' in an assembly, the House decided to take on a smaller, but similar challenge, in the form of rowing, on rowing machines, 300km. This is equivalent to the distance from Ardingly College to Paris. The event raised nearly £1000 for Medecins Sans Frontieres.
This year, the Gents have taken on the challenge again on the 13th January, the first weekend of the Lent Term. Hilton are aiming for 300km again, in 5 hours, but will happily take on more kilometers, if we can! Last year, it proved to be one of the best, if toughest, events of the year in the boarding community.
We would be grateful for any donations and look forward to some long, gruelling hours on the ergometers.
