Good evening Newborough parkrunners and walkers. It’s finally the end of the week and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning at the Moe Botanic gardens.

We have a full roster of volunteers this week, so thank you to all our volunteers.

Although our core roster is full, we always welcome anyone who would like to help either sorting finish tokens with our barcode scanner volunteer, or assisting our finish token volunteer give out finish tokens. You will be added to the volunteer list and get a volunteer credit, so why not give it a go. Just talk to me before the briefing if you would like assist.

See you tomorrow morning at 7:45 for the briefing.

💙 It’s National Volunteer Week 💙

At Newborough parkrun, our events simply wouldn’t happen without our amazing volunteers. Every cheer, barcode scan, finish token, marshal smile and photo snapped helps create the welcoming community we all love each Saturday morning.

If you’ve ever thought about giving volunteering a go — this is your sign! 🙌

You don’t need experience, special skills, or to volunteer every week. All roles are simple, fully supported, and a great way to meet people, have fun, and be part of something positive in our community.

Whether you’re taking a break from running, bringing along family or friends, recovering from injury, or just keen to help out — we’d love to have you join the red vest brigade ❤️

Volunteering at parkrun is:
✅ Fun
✅ Easy
✅ Rewarding
✅ A great way to give back to the community

If you’d like to have a go, comment below, message the page, or chat to our Run Director on Saturday morning.

Thank you to every single person who has volunteered with us — you are what makes Newborough parkrun so special 🌟
