EVENT WRAP UP
On Saturday 8 October we held our 2nd Active Games in Western Australia in Torbay.
We saw 60 teams and over 20 kids enjoying a spectacular day. The 2022 WA Active Games brought in teams from all over, including Kellerberrin, Woodanilling, Katanning, Albany and Ongerup just to name a few. Some teams arrived the night before and set up camp, others came and set up on the morning, all were met with beautiful sunshine and lots of exciting obstacles.
All the teams had finished up around 4:20pm allowing the kids course to be opened. Over 20 kids lined up and took to the course like fish to water. It was great to see the kids and adults help each other throughout the obstacle course with outreached hands and encouraging voices seen and heard everywhere; very much in the spirit of Active Farmers.
Once the kids had finished, event organiser, Boyd Rae, stood under the David Grays marquee and announced the days best times for all catagories, along with best dressed prizes, oldest combined team prize and the Sumitomo spirit award which was given to the only participant that was injured due to a rolled ankle and a volunteer that went above and beyond.
Live band The Numbats cranked up to signify the end of the day and the start of the Active Games Sundowner. Many Participants settled in to enjoy some more BBQ from the Elders BBQ Trailer and some live music.
The amazing photographers from Ace Photography Camera Club captured how much fun and enjoyment was had by all, click on the link below to enjoy more of their beautiful images.
Thank you to our wonderful sponsors and our volunteers for helping us run another successful event. Without your support we wouldn’t be able to host such events across Australia.
