Space Racing at Bicentennial Park this week attracted a set of hardy souls not put off by a little cold weather and a touch of drizzle.  A  group of over 40 children from Maroubra kept the ONSW busy as they helped the youngsters tackle the score course around the park.  Bicentennial Park is a perfect place for Space Racing with it’s beautiful parkland, path networks, lakes and streams and even the odd statue to navigate around.  Quickest around the course was Aidan Dawson, Junior Squad member, in a zippy 18 minutes. With juice still in his legs he joined the efforts of the fellow Junior Squad members, Lawrence  and Georgia Jones, and Daniel Hill as they went out again to shadow and coach some of the younger racers in groups.
