On Saturday, we celebrated the 8th Anniversary of West Coast Park parkrun! What a fantastic way to celebrate with awards, milestones, brownies and our parkrun community including some tourists and new faces! We had tourists visit us from UK (London) and Australia (Melbourne and Brisbane). Our photos from our photographer Kwint Dumortier have been uploaded to the album for event #308! There are more photos to come so stay tuned to the page for an extra album!
