A friendly reminder there is NO North Wollongong parkrun tomorrow (7/11) due to a surf carnival being held at Fairy Meadow Beach.

We look forward to seeing you next week, and if you would like to Volunteer we would love to have you - the roster is looking very bare.

The festive season is tiptoeing around the corner, jingling its bells and bringing a little extra parkrun magic with it! This year, we’re joining forces with our northern neighbours at Sandon Point parkrun for a merry little adventure through Christmas and New Year.

On Christmas morning, Sandon Point will unwrap the first parkrun of the festivities. Then, as the calendar turns its final page and a brand-new year peeks over the horizon, North Wollongong will be ready to welcome January 1 with fresh air, friendly faces and a New Year’s Day parkrun.

Here’s your festive trail of parkrun merriment:

🎄 Friday 25th December – Let Christmas morning begin with a dash of Sandon Point parkrun magic
🏃‍♂️ Saturday 26th December – The festivities multiply, with both North Wollongong & Sandon Point parkruns
🎉 Friday 1st January – Step, skip or stride into the New Year at North Wollongong parkrun
🏃‍♂️‍➡️ Saturday 2nd January – Keep the sparkle going at both North Wollongong & Sandon Point parkruns

Four parkruns. Eight twinkling summer days. Two seaside communities. However you join us — running, walking or volunteering — bring your festive spirit and let’s make a little parkrun magic together!

We seemed to have misplaced our paper roster from the weekend.

If you put your hand up to volunteer in the coming weeks (Not this week though as we have cancelled) could you please message us so we can ensure you get the position you put down for before someone else contacts us.

The current (and yet updated) future roster can be found at the following link.

Here is the volunteer roster for the next few weeks. If you'd like to volunteer at a future event please email [email protected]. To find out more, visit the volunteer page.
