Cop That Lot

The Crippled Children Society benefited by $700 from the holiday charity run organised by Boys' High School sportsmaster John McFarlane and eleven students from the school. The relay run took in as far as Palmerston North and round through Rotorua and Whakatane before returning to Gisborne. A grand effort and one that shows that today's youth are not all entirely hellbent on upsetting the community.
