E NEWS - 28
SEPTEMBER 2016
Great to see such
a good roll up for Super Sprint #2 at the weekend & we were excited to
have equal numbers of male & female participants. Pat on the
back DTC, that's something few sports/clubs can announce.
It was also good news that we welcomed a number of new members to our event
& were able to share in their enthusiasm for our sport. Well done all
participants.
Our one armed RD Allan
Barrett was back for the second time in as many weeks and
again made sure all bases were covered for our event. Thanks Allan!
Thanks also go to our rostered rego team of Kate Bell & Leana Watermeyer, Leanne Fidler
for covering our post race refreshments and to everyone who just jumped in
to help on the day.
