Gordons Secondary School’s Kokofa Athletics Club will be holding a fundraising walkathon on Saturday November 16th in order to support their 25 athletes who will participate in the Athletics PNG’s National Championships next month. Speaking to the contact person John Gitiri, he stated that the athletes also require new sets of uniforms. “Basically, we want to purchase new uniforms as well as other necessary equipment such as medical kits.” The club’s target amount is K3, 000, however, Mr. Gitiri believes the club may reach more than that due to overwhelming responses from interested parents and former students. He added that the inclusion of social media in spreading the message has helped greatly. The Walkathon will begin at Hunter Street at 6:30am and end at Ela Beach. K1, 000 for a group of 10 individuals and K5 or more for individual sponsors. Participants are to walk up and down Hunter St, turn right through Champion Parade, then turn left along Stanley Espalande around Bramell St (Paga Ring Rd), and finish at Ela Beach. The Kokofa Athletics Club was established in 2013 during the Inaugural Southern Regional Championships.
