Hello all you WEE competitors. I hope you’ve been taking advantage of the LVO autumn Wednesday evening programme. Next Wednesday September 18th is Sporteering 5, which is like a WEE event on the side streets around Connswater.
It will be based around the Tim Hortons café there. Meet at 7pm for a jog out to the start.
Afterwards we’re going to have the prizegiving for the WEE Series in Tim Hortons at about 8:30 pm so come along for a coffee and doughnut to congratulate our winners.
Once you’ve won a prize in a given WEE Series then you aren’t eligible for a prize in the subsequent months, which spreads out the prizes a bit. This year’s winners were:
