The event again attracted a large entry for this event with forty seven relay teams and 188 children. The event which is for pupils aged Primary 4 – 7 from small schools and Primary 6 – 7 from large schools is part of the Annandale and Eskdale PEPAS calendar of events sponsored by Magnox Limited.
The prizes were presented by Richard Murray from Magnox Limited who said ”there was another great turn out of children and schools at the Everholm Running Track and the standard of the young athletes was excellent.
