Wyndham Rotary are limbering up for one of their biggest fundraisers of the year, with their annual Fun Run taking place on April 28.

Held at Wyndham Park, the 2024 event will feature 10 kilometre and five kilometre races, with runners raising funds for Mercy Hospital and Australian Rotary Health.

Wyndham Rotary’s Andrew Caracoglia said everyone was welcome to come along, whether they planned to run or not.

“We extend an open invitation to everyone in the community to be a part of this

memorable day,” he said.

“This event is a platform for local businesses, families, and individuals to

connect, enjoy a day outdoors, and support meaningful causes. Whether participating in the run or walk, enjoying the entertainment, or simply soaking in the community vibe, your presence contributes to our collective effort to make a difference.”

Along with the fun run itself, the event will also feature a dedicated stage that will host performances by the live band Pineapple Head, alongside dance performances by local talents.

Attendees can explore marquees featuring local businesses, offering a great opportunity to network and discover local products and services.

A selection of food trucks will be on-site providing meals and refreshments and there will also be a selection of activities and entertainment for children.

The day will kick off at 8:30am with a motivational warm-up and finish with presentations for race winners and placegetters as well as an

award for the largest team.
