Welcome to new members having their first run with the club: Dean Godfrey, Clare Holst, Tracee Rowe and Michael Jansen. Warren Holst outdid himself bringing the tent, BBQ and table, acting as BBQ chef and earning a bronze medal in the mens 50+. Thanks to our officials: Michael Atkinson, Chris Dunne and Alan Glover.
