Roon the Toon 2018 – Help Required

Hi All, we are just on the point of closing entries for the Roon the Toon 10K at 1400 entrants, and it is shaping up to be a great event. After last year’s trial event, the wheelchair race is now firmly established in the race calendar and we have some great competitors including British Rio Para Olympian and triple European medalist, Ben Rowlings, taking part.

This year we have also  introduced the 10K Stroller Roll and we have 9 enthusiastic baby buggy shuvers joining in. Plus we have some great competition in prospect in the men’s and women’s 10K.  All we need to do now is deliver it!

To do that we will need a large number of helpers, so if you are not running the event (and so far 77 club members are!) then we really need your support to help out on the day.

The junior section have stepped up to the plate by volunteering to manage the distribution of goodies at the finish and their  coaches will be recruiting for this task.

Volunteers (adult members, junior section parents or their friends / family) are required for a variety of roles from car park attendants, through to start / finish controllers to race marshals. All you need is to be available to attend the AAA on Friday 8th June from 7 to 8 for briefing / preparation and then on the day from approx 9 till 12. I promise you will enjoy the experience.

If you can help,  then please let me know by email here – Ian Gebbie  or via the club Facebook page, or by contacting myself or Matt Dodds directly.

It is going to be a great event for the club and the town. Be part of it!
