Dry track at last

THE Pakenham Little Athletics track is finally starting to dry out and the athletes are loving it, breaking loads of personal bests (PBs) and smashing seven centre records on Saturday.
Santa paid a visit and handed out icy-poles which were thoroughly enjoyed by all the athletes. This was the last meeting before the Christmas break and we are back, up and running on Saturday 14 January. Pakenham Little Athletics wishes all athletes a safe and Merry Christmas and best wishes for the New Year.
New Centre Records were set in the 100 metre sprint, 300 metre hurdles and the 400 metre sprint.
