November News

2024

Club Members Info:

Members Facebook Group – You might have noticed that we have made a slight tweak to our name of the Facebook group name. “Audley Striders Members Group” – this is a group, for you all, the members, to share any runs/training that you are organising, that you think other members might like to join you on. Any races you have signed up to, that we could train alongside you and for some of us to be able to keep the date free to cheer you over that finish line – we can be loud and we love to fly our flag! And lastly any local events/running meets etc, that you feel might be of interest to other members.

Audley Striders Members Group

Run Leaders – We still have funds available to allow members to train to be a run leader. Please get in touch if you would like any further information.

NSRRA Ambassador – Would anyone like to represent our club for the following year as the NSRRA Ambassador?

Audley Rotary have asked if any of our members would like to help on the Santa evenings – we will share the dates and locations on the members Facebook group.

SPOND

Please continue to use Spond for our runs  – Now the darker nights are here our run leaders need to know who they have in their groups.
