Hi All,
There was a
great roll up of senior and junior members for our aquathlons yesterday at Lake
Alexander. Great to see so many enthusiastic faces. Some were
grateful for the later start time, others cursing it as they neared the end of
the run.
Our sincere
thanks to Race Director Justin Tranter and all the volunteers who helped stage
this event. We really appreciate your efforts.
We also
thank Surf Life. We now have new arrangements regarding water safety in
place due to the efforts of committee member Bin Birk.
As the
seniors participated in the final race of the series (and the NT Aquathlon
championships) our juniors had fun in a series of activities under the watchful
eye of Bec and Tim Ellison, our thanks also to them for stepping up to help
out.
