Kaikoura Suburban School’s annual running event
What a wonderful day that was had by all on Saturday 12 September. The competitors and support crew were a great bunch, all displaying good sportsmanship and support for the event. The staff of the school once again supporting and organising another successful day. The Home and School committee who I believe are the best bakers in the town selling some gorgeous treats and running the coffee cart.
The other group of importance is Downer EDi for the tremendous amount of time they give to submitting traffic management plans, sourcing cones, vests and then putting all the cones out for the event. We are truly very appreciative of this huge undertaking.
The feedback from the event has been truly amazing, people enjoying the course, the course well labelled, support on the river bank with having the 4-wheel motor bike meandering around, competitors enjoyed the bun, chocolate bar and fruit kindly sponsored by Kaikoura New World, the prizes and spot prizes kindly donated from the Kaikoura businesses (see the Half Marathon page on this site for the list of names) and the great organisation.
We will be running another event next year and the date for that will be
11 September 2010.
