MND Week in Elliston - Laps of the Oval (Article from MND news letter) The MND group of walkers. Well done on the funds raised for MND. Photo from Audine Tree, taken on the Elliston Football Oval. Unable to attend the Adelaide Walk to D Feet, some local Elliston residents didn't let that stop them from raising funds through their own local event. Thanks to the people of the small coastal town of Elliston (population 250) for their generosity in the Laps of the Oval event Organised by a client of the Association, Audine, the Laps of the Oval event was held in MND Weed and raised $600 to support the work of MND researchers Locals were asked to walk around the oval and pay $1 per lap. 22 ladies and 2 dogs participated in the event and instead of paying $1 per lap they offered $5, $10 and $20!
