Our volunteers have stepped up and we're all systems go for parkrun tomorrow. It'll be the 22nd, so feel free to wear a tutu (if you need an excuse!) Whatever you're wearing, be at Aveley central Park at 7:50 tomorrow morning for the run brief!
If you're keen to be photographer, please let us know!

It was a lovely day for parkrun on Saturday, and this weekend looks no different, with the added bonus of being the 22nd! Feel free to wear a tutu!
However, we're still in need of some volunteers! We need;
Time keeper.
Finish tokens
And we'd love a photographer!
Please let us know in the comments or send us a message if you're able and willing to fill any of those roles this week.

If you’ve been out to the course recently, you would have noticed the lake was quite flooded but as of today it is looking all good for parkrun tomorrow! 🏃🏻♀️🏃🏻
However we do still need a photographer to capture the fun - if you’d like to volunteer, please let the team know. If you’re unsure about what the role requires or want more info on any of the vollie roles, send through a message 📸
Happy middle of the week, parkrunners! 🏃🏻♀️ 🏃🏻
We still need a photographer and a marshal to ensure that this weekend’s parkrun can go ahead. Please let us know you’d like to fill either of these roles 🌳 📸
