Hi All,
On Saturday
we were able to reflect on the recently completed 2013/14 year and celebrate
our members many achievements during that period.
Drinks and
nibbles enjoyed, our awards were presented (see list below) before we sat back
and enjoyed our catered BBQ. The outdoor casual setting was given the
thumbs up by those in attendance.
A big thank
you to Blue Cycles NT and AMart Sports
for supporting our awards night.
We
encourage our members to sign up to the AMart Community Kickback program that
directly benefits our club. We will have some cards at our next event or you
can get them in store - ask for your card to be linked to Darwin Triathlon
Club.
Our first
event for the new season takes place this Sunday. Good news, RD Barry
Sullivan advises that wetsuits are allowed. Get your 2014/2015 point
score off to an early start!!
