Kids Fun Run with Puffing Billy

Have your kids ever wanted to race a train?

On Sunday 4 December, children aged 3-12 are invited to attend the annual Kids Fun Run with Puffing Billy in Gembrook, hosted by The Rotary Club of Emerald & District.

Children will race against the iconic steam train in one of six aged-based groups in a day of fun for the entire family. All funds raised will be generously donated to the Monash Children’s Cancer Centre to support patients and their families throughout their treatment journey.

The Children’s Cancer Centre at Monash Children’s Hospital cares for approximately 30% of all childhood cancer patients in Victoria.

Every child participating will receive a special certificate and a show bag after their race.

Parents and children not participating in the race can join in the fun by cheering on others and taking a joy ride on Puffing Billy throughout the day.

To register your kids in a race and/or to book a ride on Puffing Billy, please visit the following website: https://emeraldrotary.org.au/page/kfrwpb
