Sunrise Walk for Hospice Dec 10

Calling all Walkers! The date is set, mark it in your diaries, tell your friends but above all plan to be there (women only).

Last year almost 800 women enjoyed a time of fun and fellowship while walking (or running) through the scenic surrounds of the Botanic Gardens and Totara Park whilst helping to raise over $97,000 towards the important work of Hospice South Auckland in our community.
