Halloween run

Club News

On 31st October we’ll be doing an all-inclusive Halloween run. 🎃👻 It’ll be a similar format to the Red Nose Day run for those who took part in that. For it to happen we need 5-6 volunteers for some very easy tasks. 2 people (together) will be based away from the club the others will be at or in the grounds of the club. One of these people needs to arrive at club for around 6 so there when anyone starts to arrive. Can anyone help please? There will be a prize for the best fancy dress too so get planning those costumes!
