Sunday 13th September 2009 - Scott May Dare Devil Stunt Show at Lands End Airport

 

Scott May and his father Michael, have kindly agreed to put on a show with all proceeds being donated to the Miners Statue Appeal. Local daredevil Scott May will perform this special benefit show in aid of the St Just & Pendeen Miners Statue Appeal on Sunday 13th Sepember at Lands End Airport. 

 

Scott and his family are keen to bring the number one UK and European Touring Stunt Show back to the Lands End Area for the final show of this year’s season. It is particularly significant, as the Miners Statue Appeal is a cause which is close to their hearts as well as to their St Just home.

 

The show will comprise a host of breathtaking stunts featuring motorcycles, monster trucks, jumps, crashes, and Scott’s high level precision driving techniques. Gates will open at 1.30pm and the show commences at 3.00pm. Tickets available at the door, and are priced at £10 for adults, and £5 for children, with all profits from the show going to the Miners Statue Appeal.
