Prize-giving wrapped up the club programme for the year on Friday 10th June with a great turnout on a winter's evening. Medals & trophies were awarded for Club races; with input from member nominations our Prestige Prizes were revealed; and we recognised those selected to represent NZ in junior travelling teams over winter.
A huge thanks to all our volunteers, which is everyone, but a special thanks to those who were brought forward at Friday's presentation. We couldn't do it without you.
A final thanks to members for supporting the food truck on the night. Due to Covid we were reduced to one truck at the last minute, but Hash & Smash was super pleased with the uptake and they'll be back!
