YARRA Ranges Athletics opened the 2016-’17 summer track and field season on the weekend in superb conditions at Morrison Reserve.
It was fantastic to see so many returning members helping explain the fun of athletics to the many new members.
It was great to have plenty of smiling faces enjoying the competition, fun and company of fellow athletes.
Thanks to all the parents who provided some much needed help throughout the morning, it certainly appears as though you enjoyed it as much as the athletes.
Next week, little athletics starts at 8.30am at Morrison Reserve, Mount Evelyn.

The senior team headed to Bill Sewart Reserve, Burwood East, for the opening round of the AV Shield.
An excellent turnout of athletes across all age groups made for a fun and successful day.
Congratulations to the new members on debut for Yarra Ranges Athletics.
The club hopes you enjoyed the day.
Next week the club is back at the same venue for Round 2.
