Well what a weekend, fabulous weather, new event, and some great results made it all the more worthwhile for the long drive to Whangamata. We had three teams competing in what was to be record numbers for ARC's 12 year history.
The teams and their results were as follows:
WARTS 1: Mark Davies Collie and Arnon Sharpe: 1st Place out of 5 Teams
WARTS 2: James Edwards, Phil Kim, and Robert Francis: 1st Place out of 9 Teams
WARTS 3: Grace Miller, Kayla Gentil, and Rebecca Laws: 5th Place out of 9 Teams
Well done to all teams on their fantastic results. 2011 is going to be a great year with a start like this.
Here are some photos from the event
Next event is Get 2 Go on Saturday the 9th of April. We will be taking four teams to this event, fingers crossed for similar results as ARC.
