HK's annual Pride Run is on the 14th of December, and will be followed by a barbecue/picnic in Aberdeen Country Park. This event page is for the barbecue!

You don't need to run to join the barbecue - come and cheer for the runners, have lunch with us and socialise!

Note: To join the run, you need to register at https://www.racebase.asia/pride-run.
The run is NOT being hosted by Tandem. We are simply promoting it. There is a separate event page on Meetup for Tandem members who want to run together here.

Runners - Carmay and Jennifer will be at the Country Park before the race starts if you want to leave food etc. with us while you're running. Please label your stuff - we don't take responsibility if someone else eats it!

The Plan

• 0730 Runners, drop your food etc. with BBQ organisers
• 0800 9km race starts
• 0830 5km race starts
• 1100 BBQing starts
• 1400 end

What to do

1. RSVP here and let us know if you're also running & want to leave a bag with the organisers.
2. Please FPS $50 to Carmay indicating your Meetup username, the name you usually use, and the Event Name. Please send the screenshot of your payment to Carmay via WhatsApp. If you’re new and/or don’t yet know the organiser, please DM the organiser via Meetup to get their contact and payment details. Please note, you don’t have a ticket to the event until you’ve paid. If we don’t receive your payment within 24hrs of your RSVP we will move you to “Not Going”.

What is included
The $50 is to purchase bags of charcoal for the group, ONE fork per person, some metal BBQ grills and some disposable plates and cutlery (we would highly recommend bringing your own reusable cutlery to reduce waste).

What is NOT included
Food and drink are NOT included. There are no shops on site, so please purchase everything in town before arriving. We recommend bringing sunscreen, food to BBQ, and drinks (including plenty of water).

Please note

1. The exact location of the venue and payment account number will be announced in the WhatsApp event group.
2. We run all our event communication through WhatsApp. Please keep track of event related messages in the WhatsApp event group and respond to requests and instructions from organisers within 24 hours. Please don’t put the chat on mute. If our team don’t receive your response within 24 hours, we will move you to “Not Going”.
3. We encourage language inclusivity at all our events. If you aren’t confident in English, please let our team know. We will try to provide bilingual support where possible and/or will try and introduce you to other language speakers you’re more comfortable with. Please be mindful that we might not be able to accommodate all languages at all events, but we will do our best to make everyone feel welcome and heard.
4. All payments are non-refundable. If you can’t make it, you’ll have to find your own replacement, re-sell your own ticket, and inform the organisers of who is taking your place.
5. If you sign up, but can no longer make it, please update your RSVP as soon as possible and tell the organisers. Updating your RSVP well ahead of the event allows us to manage the waitlist; allow other people to attend; know who to look out for at the start of the event.
6. If you don’t have a clear face pic on your profile and/or your username doesn’t match the name you normally use, we can’t identify your payments nor match your RSVP with who you are in real life. If this is you, please ensure the organisers know who you are. If we can’t work out who you are within 24 hours of your RSVP, we will move you to “Not Going”.
7. Only group members and their guests with an RSVP may attend events; people who aren’t signed up will be refused entry to events.
8. If you don’t follow the conditions above, we will move you to “Not Going” for future events until you message us to confirm you will follow these conditions.

We hope to see you there!
