Antigua St. John’s - The Halcyon Tennis Club has hailed its Inaugural Rupert K. Henry Fun/Health Walk a success.

About 50 persons completed the walk, last Saturday, which was organised in honour of avid tennis player and fan of the junior development programme, the late Rupert K. Henry.
 
At 5 am, the participants set off from the Shell Beach Marina starting point and travelled the Jabberwock, Hodges Bay, and Cedar Grove route before finishing at Halcyon by Rex Resorts Tennis courts.
 
First walker to arrive was Antonette Hobson, Edwin Hughes second, while the first runner to make it to the finish was Aiden Ambrose.
 
Arriving first in the youngest and oldest walker categories were Seth Joseph and Elmore “EP” Piggot, respectively.
 

The organisers have expressed thanks to the sponsors who provided the prizes for the winners – Cool & Smooth and Colombian Emeralds – and Antigua Home & Office Depot and Hadeed Motors for providing water for the walkers.
 
“We also want to thank all those persons who, though you did not walk, gave a donation to this fund raising effort,” Halcyon Tennis Club said in a release. “We trust that this annual event will be even more successful in 2013 and look forward to the support of the general public as this is a junior development affair.”
