Hi All,
Members were well represented among the thousands strutting their stuff at the Australia Fun Run yesterday. Some were very colourfully attired indeed. It was a huge crowd and there were people running down to Vestey's Beach while some were still way back at Mindil shuffling their way to the High School Hill. Fantastic turnout !
