What else you need to know…
GUNLAC has accumulated a lot of lost property this season, including a junior fit bit (this is being held by a committee member for safe keeping). We are bringing it all along to the presentation day and encourage everyone to check through for any missing clothing, drink bottles etc. Anything that is not collected will be donated to charity after the event. If you’re not able to make it on Sunday we will arrange another time for people to collect their medals so stay tuned for those details. We can’t wait to see you there to celebrate all of our 2024-25 athlete and club achievements. Let’s go Geckos! This Saturday is our final meet of the season, so let's make it a good one!
