Member’s activities

With spring trying to arrive, we look forward to some great days to get out running & walking.
Congratulations to Alicia who completed the Berlin Marathon. Also, to Robert who ran in the Crater
Rim ultra this month. Amazing!

Key dates to remember

Saturday 2nd November – Annual Dinner
Annual Dinner at the Brentwood Hotel. This was a great event last year so please sign up to the
website page ‘WRW Annual Club Dinner
or below Latest Posts on the website Home page.
Bice and Maryse have arranged the evening, with a menu aimed to suit all preferences. During the
evening there will be short presentations from members reflecting on their experiences as a runner
or walker.
We need to notify the Brentwood final numbers by this Thursday prior to the dinner, so best to sign
up before then.

8th December – AGM
The AGM provides members to consider what has happened during the past year, but more
importantly consider what the future profile of the Club and its activities will be. It also provides
club members with the opportunity of putting their names forward as Committee membership. The
venue is planned to be at the Akau Tangi Sports Stadium. Could any notices of motion, or brief
walk/runners reports please be sent to the committee by 17 th December.

Thinking of members

There are members of the Club and family of club members who are currently facing challenging
health journeys. Our thoughts are with you all.

Bus Trip

We will again be planning bus trips for next year as they always prove to be successful. The 5 bus
trips this year have been popular, with favourable feedback from those who have been, including
note of the wonderful routes and maps arranged by Mark Growcott. Should any members have new
ideas of where we should go, suggestions would be much appreciated. Such suggestions can be
made at any time to Committee members
