The walk will take place around the inner oval using the concrete walkway keeping clear of the playing grassed arena. Participants can walk for any length of time, short or long during the 12-hour period and some businesses or groups are planning a 12-hour relay team.

Official prizegiving:

Shortly after the 8pm closing time on Saturday evening we will have a celebrity close the event and award some spot prizes for fancy dress teams, individuals or meritorious participation.
