The Mildenhall ‘Fen Tigers’, proudly sponsored by Manchetts Rescue and Recovery, will host a charity testimonial meeting for Speedway’s ‘Mr. Entertainer’ Danny Ayres on Sunday 28th June at 3pm to raise funds for Danny’s dependants following his sad passing this weekend.
Following a positive day of discussions with BSPA Chairman Rob Godfrey, Ipswich promoter Chris Louis and Kent promoter Len Silver it has been agreed that the meeting format will be a Four Team Tournament involving the Fen Tigers, Kent, Ipswich and Scunthorpe.
The Mildenhall management would like to thank all three for their support and backing of this event and will now work closely with them to put together a meeting worthy of the memory of the man widely known throughout speedway circles as Mr. Entertainer.
Mildenhall promoter Greg Palmer added “We are proud as a club to be hosting this event in Danny’s memory, he was a special person and was so proud to ride for Mildenhall, as we were to have him in our team. We will do everything in our power to make this a special occasion and put together a day that everyone will remember. All profits form the meeting will go to his dependants and we will now start working on sponsorship opportunities for the day with the management teams from Ipswich, Scunthorpe and Kent.
I would like to thank Rob Godfrey, Chris Louis and Len Silver for their wholehearted support and we will let fans know in the next few weeks how they can be a part of ‘Danny’s Day’”.
