This event was a huge success last year and brought with it many growling stomachs. Hospice and the Arts Council are excited to able to fill that void this year with a large fundraising concession to be held at the north end of Centennial Park near to the finish line.
The race starts at 7 am and hot drinks, homemade freshly baked cinnamon buns and scones will be available starting at 6 am. As the racers arrive back in the park starting at 9 am and continuing through the morning and noon, there will also be hot barbequed items, wraps and drinks.
We invite the whole community to come out to celebrate the athletes’ accomplishments, experience the buzz of a fantastic event and take a break from your own kitchen. All are welcome.
We can’t wait to see you there and fill you up!
