We want to thank all of our donors and sponsors for this year, see below for a complete list!
As always the biggest thanks need to go to the event organizer, Mr. Bill Lynam
Without him none of this would be possible, and as he has told us this will be his last year, the job of finding a replacement will be a difficult one.
All in all we introduced a great number of kids to the outdoor sports all while having a fun safe time. We hope to see you for next years Youth Field Day!
