Sunday, the 19th of May, is one of the highlights of the Stoneyford calendar, marking the much-anticipated annual 10k and 5k Run. This event attracts runners, walkers, and Stoneyfordians of all ages, eagerly participating either to compete seriously or to challenge their own personal goals.

The event was flawlessly organized, transforming the village into a festive hub. While the serious runners aimed for victory, many others enjoyed a leisurely pace, some even pushing baby buggies around the course. It’s a wonderful social event where old friends reconnect and new friendships are formed, creating a vibrant and friendly atmosphere.

This year, the organizers truly outdid themselves, with a victory arch of multicolored balloons adding a festive touch. Every detail was meticulously planned, leaving nothing to chance. The only unpredictable element was the weather, which had been changeable in the days leading up to the event. Fortunately, the 19th dawned beautifully, with perfect conditions—neither too hot nor too cold. The day proceeded without a hitch, and everyone left with smiles, already looking forward to another great run in 2025.

Unfortunately over the past few months there has been a large amount of dog fouling on the community centre pitch and walking track. These areas are used by our soccer club, visiting clubs, walkers and runners. We would ask that all dog walkers to please adhere to the following guidelines.

All dogs must be kept on a lead at all times. Many people both adults and children are afraid of dogs.

No Dogs allowed on the green area.

Clean up after your dog. Bag It, Bin It.

If the problem continues we may have to ban dog walking in the future.
