Start Line 2005
The Yaxley 7 Mile Road Race, Fun Runs and Village Summer Fair was a very successful event. Held on Sunday 26th June 2005, the sun shone, and people turned out in their hundreds. We had an amazing 127 entries to the race and we are hoping for an even greater number next year.
Thanks
Val Stone (Race Director), Paula Smith (Race Co-Ordinator), Jo Kirk (Friends
of William De Yaxley and Fair Co-Ordinator), Friends of Fourfields, Friends
of Yaxley Infants School and Stretton Preschool would all like to say a BIG
thank you to everyone who helped and attended - you all made the day very
special.
