This prestigious club is for those who have completed 15 Rotorua Marathons or more around Lake Rotorua. If you believe you could be eligible for admission to the Club in 2010 please email Pam Kenny at kennys@xtra.co.nz or post to 3 Haratua Place, Rotorua 3015, details of the previous 14 Rotorua Marathons you have finished (time and years), and if your family name has changed your former name(s). Participation in either the supporting 5km or 10km events does not count towards membership; neither does the rained out 1999 event.  Many thanks to Pam Kenny for her work in verifying new members
