We had our open day at the Wairau Bridge Renwick last weekend. Attendance was not great but understandable given the summer sport were winding down with finals everywhere. We do have some photos in our photo gallery.
Today it is another pack run starting from Riverlands Community Hall where you go onto the Wither Hills and return. Anyone from the community are welcome to run, jog, walk or talk then enjoy a cuppa afterwards.
Next week the competition begins at the Taylor Dam with our Scratch race. Again everyone is welcome whether a member or not. Just come and enjoy and of course a cuppa afterwards.
Thanks to Sheila Waters we have had a static display in the Blenheim Public Library. Looked impressive thanks Sheila.
