Elgin Rotary Club's 11th and Original City Centre Relay Marathon Race

and Family Fun Day sponsored by Diageo

Sunday 5 June 2011

Elgin Rotary Club's Marafun is a city centre relay race for teams of 5. The first Marafun was in 1991 when £25,000 was raised for charity and since then it has been held every two years, alternating with Motorfun, raising well over half a million pounds through the hard work and generous sponsorship of local people and our main sponsor, Diageo.

100 Charities: The total amount raised from Marafun will be distributed equally between 100 local charities.

Visit Moray Photographics to purchase photographs of the day. This facility will expire on July 7th.
