50th Anniversary Event
Our event on Sunday 21 April 2024 will mark 50 years since the first run by a small group of enthusiasts who would become known as the W.A Veterans Athletics Club.
We will mark the occasion with a commemorative photograph of all in attendance followed by an event for walkers and runners from just about the same spot as they started 50 years ago.
The event will be followed by a morning tea from about 9.00 am and then the cutting of the 50th birthday cake.
Come along and join in the celebration of this special occasion. -
