Run For Sam


๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ Are you joining Newbiggin Sports and Social for Run for Sam? ๐โโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ
On Sunday 29th September they are meeting at Newbiggin Church Point at 11am. Here is some useful information regarding car parks, public toilets and refreshments. Whether you choose to run or walk, the community are coming together to complete 2.1 miles in Sam’s honour. If you are able to volunteer to help marshal please contact Newbiggin SAS (Sports & Social) Running Group. Please share this information.
The Temporary Overflow Car Park will be available on the day and sign posted in Town (more details on the poster). We have not listed Gibson Street Car Park as this is currently under maintenance and not in use at the moment. If you decide to go to Spital Point Car Park (5) please be careful of uneven surface.
