GEORGE NEWS - A 5km fun run/walk to be hosted by Blue Ribbon in collaboration with Meals on Wheels on Women's Day, Friday 9 August, promises to spice up the public holiday for senior citizens.

The event, organised specially for seniors, starts at the Thembalethu Seventh Day Adventist Church at 07:45 when light breakfast snacks and coffee will be served and registration will start.

 The warm-up starts at 09:30 and the walk at 10:00 and all seniors from George are invited.

Ntombi Nyumbane, one of the organisers from Blue Ribbon, says they are expecting a large turnout. 

"There are some 60 people who regularly attend the Meals on Wheels gym sessions for seniors on Mondays and Wednesdays, and they will definitely be participating. But we invite all other seniors from George to join in the fun."

Eden FM will add to the festive vibe with live broadcasting from the site.
