Local Business Support IRON KIDS!
Despite the economy three extraordinary local businesses are stepping
forward to lend their support to the Royal Sun Alliance Iron Kids triathlon,
a mini version of the Conchman triathlon, in the hopes of increasing local
kids turnout for this event. This year the Conchman committee is
challenging all schools to make a consorted effort to get as many kids as
they can active in the triathlon process. The top three schools with the
most participants will be eligible to win prizes for their schools or
physical education department.
The challenge has been backed up by local businesses that have come forward
and donated prizes to help the cause. The Home Centre, formerly Buildersą
Depot, has donated the first prize, a brand new computer, Bellevue Business
Depot has donated second prize a Colour Ink Jet Printer and Playtime Sports
have donated the third prize, a $100 worth of Sports equipment.
"We are so pleased to see new sponsors coming on board to support our
efforts, and to acknowledge how important it is to support the youth
involvement in this event," said Bert Bell, Conchman Race Director. The
committee is busy handing out flyers to local schools now and is looking
forward to a positive response from the schools. For more information
