Aliwal North Golf Club parkrun

Congrats to Andy Botha on doing his 300th run today.

NOTICE: ALIWAL NORTH GOLF CLUB PARKRUN CANCELLATION 📢

Unfortunately, the Aliwal North Golf Club parkrun scheduled for this Saturday, 6 June has been cancelled.

Due to the recent heavy rain, most of the course and surrounding area are flooded and unsafe.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming everyone back next Saturday once conditions have improved.

Volunteering at parkrun is about so much more than filling a role on a Saturday morning. It’s about connection, community, encouragement, and being part of something bigger than yourself. 💙

Whether you’re cheering at the finish funnel, scanning barcodes, marshalling on the course, or helping set up before sunrise, every volunteer helps create the welcoming atmosphere that makes parkrun so special.

For many people, volunteering is also a chance to:
✨ Meet new people
✨ Build confidence
✨ Empower people in their community
✨ Spend quality time with friends and family
✨ Stay connected when they can’t walk or run
✨ Experience the joy of helping others achieve something meaningful

The smiles, high-fives, thank-yous, and shared moments each week remind us that parkrun simply wouldn’t happen without volunteers.

If you’ve ever thought about giving it a try, this is your sign. No experience is needed, and there’s a role for everyone. 🙌
