07/10/2024 | East Regional Volunteer Awards - Winners! Message from Chairman | |||||||||||||||||||||
It was a very proud moment for me to receive, on behalf of Werrington Joggers, the award for Club of the Year at the East Regional Volunteer Awards event at Bury St Edmunds last night. I would like to thank everyone at the club who has contributed to this success and supported me as chairman over the past year - committee members, junior and senior coaches, organisers and helpers at our presentation and charity events, marshals at our running events, the members who helped me put our promotional video together, website and MemberMojo administrators - as well as all of you who turn out in all weathers at club night and represent the club at races throughout the year - we wouldn't be the fantastic club without you and the award is for all of you. Also thank you to all who voted (and got others to vote as well) for us in the ''free vote' - clearly we garnered the most votes to 'clinch the deal' - so our marketing campaign was one that our rival clubs could not match. Onwards and upwards WJ's - we have a marvellous club here which I am so pleased to be part of - there is a lot of truth in the saying ''a club is only as good as its members'' - and I think we demonstrate that in spades.

30/05/2024 | Werrington 3K/5K Marshals - how to volunteer / marshals draw for free race places | |||||||||||||||||||||
Dear members Firstly a big thank you to members who have already volunteered to marshal our 3K/5K event on Wednesday 10 July - we have had a good response to date, but still need another 25 or so volunteers, so please sign up if you have not already done so. As an incentive to sign up I am arranging a draw (for marshals only) for free places which I have secured for the following events: Whitemoor 5m ( at March) 14 July (same date as Thurlby 10K ( CC)) Sawtry 10m 8 September Sandringham 10K 29 September (CC) Fen 10 27 October (CC) Folksworth 15 19 January 2025 ( 2 places) So if you have already volunteered to marshal or will volunteer in response to this message and would like to be entered in the draw for any / all above events please let me know by
Deadline for entering the draws is Tuesday 18 June , with the draws being made at club night on Tuesday 25 June. This is only open to members who volunteer to marshal so please don't enter the draw/s if you are not planning to volunteer. Here is the original message from Shona and Terry regarding the event , and the link to register as a marshal: Werrington GP Series 10th July 3k and 5k – marshals needed. We are hosting the GP series 3k and 5k on the 10th of July and are seeking marshals to be at the Werrington Sports Centre from 17:45 to assist with this important event for the club. Both routes are new this year due to traffic issues. There are a range of roles available at the start, finish and out on the course. You will be given a full briefing before on the night, and we will share a list of who is assigned to each marshal point in advance so that you can see where you will be. Family friends and family members are also very welcome as we need a similar number of marshals to previous years. If you have a favourite spot or role, please let us know. As the routes are new you may be assigned to somewhere new. Also, if you would prefer to be in a pair or with someone else, do also respond on that basis. We will try to avoid putting people out on their own, but there are a couple of places where this may be necessary. We will check that you are happy and comfortable with that. How to volunteer – please send your details to werringtongpseries@gmail.com including your phone number. We are going to set up a temporary WhatsApp group for the evening which will be removed afterwards. This lets everyone know when the race has started and other bits of key information as the races progress. Thanks! We are looking forward to the event being a success for the club and we hope in advance that you enjoy the event too! Looking forward to hearing from you. Shona (Lead Marshal) and Terry (Race Director)
