A few pics from our event on Saturday, thanks to all our Pacers and as always thanks to the vollie crew, what we do without you!

Don't forget, this Saturday is Pacer Day.
We still have a few volunteer pacer roles available 18 mins, 21 mins, 29 mins and 40 mins.
Whilst all of our mandatory volunteer positions are taken it would be nice to have a photographer.

Yesterday we had LOADS of Volunteers. Its great to have loads of volunteers as it helps us exist. Thanks to everyone of you that has volunteered at our parkrun. Yesterday almost 200 runners and walkers benefitted from the volunteers that helped run the event.
This week along with our usual infographic of the results, we've included some historical stats.

We actually have a very busy roster this week with lots of juniors volunteering, but this does leave us with a lot of conundrums ensuring that we are following parkrun safeguarding policies and not leaving juniors isolated on the course.

Due to a withdrawal we do require one additional volunteer in a key role this week.

- Pre event setup - this should be performed by an adult or a junior can, with adult supervision. [EDIT - we very quickly had someone step into this role-thanks]

Such a delightful morning for a parkrun at Perry Lakes. Walkers, joggers, runners and our cheerful volunteers were able to enjoy the mild weather conditions and pleasant surroundings. Some recently hatched ducklings were also present.
We welcomed a visitor from Wollongong together with others from closer afield. Congratulations to those achieving milestones today: Jay (25), Mike (50), Amelia (100), and Stewart (250).

A huge thank you all the volunteers both new and experienced. We appreciate all that you do for us.

Well Done to all park runners/walkers this morning.

It was great to be at Perry Lakes today as the birds were chirping and the sun was shining.

A bonus the roster is looking full for next week.

Enjoy the rest of the day everyone 😀
