Aug 15, 2012 Sports

Race walkers would be kept busy for the next few weeks following several races planned by the Cavalier Sports and Tour Club (CS&TC). Activities started last Sunday August 12 with the Forbes Burnham Memorial Race Walk and will culminate with the Linden Race Walk on September 2 next.
The next race, a 10k event, will commence on Saturday August 18 around the Den Amstel Community on the West Coast Demerara. Participants are asked to convene at the Old Claybrick Road at 06:30hrs whereupon, they would journey around the village. The athletes will then move over to the Canal #2 Polder on Sunday August 19. That race starts off at the road head and culminates at the other end. On Saturday August 25 the walkers will journey to Soesdyke for another 10k race that starts at Trevor Harry’s Photo Studio, proceeds around the village and back to the place of origin.
Several other races are planned for the month including a 10k event around the Melanie Damishana community on Sunday August 26 and another in the Berbice area from the New Amsterdam Town Hall up to the Guysuco, Rose Hall Canje Estate for the finish.
The grand finale, in Linden commences at Watooka House and culminates at the Linden Bandstand.
Participants are urged to be at the various starting lines at 06:00hrs to facilitate a prompt start at 06:30hrs. Once again, walkers will vie for prizes donated by members of the business community including trophies, medals and other prizes.
