SUNDAY was a day of sporting celebration for Okehampton on Sunday as Simmons Park hosted the annual Super Sporting Sunday.

The event is the highlight of the Sports and Fitness Festival organised by OCRA. The festival promotes a huge variety of sport and physical activities, opening up sporting opportunities to everyone in the town with a huge range of free have-a-go sessions and competitions to take part in. Many of the activities on offer are completely free, or run at special festival discount prices.

The weather was among the worst it has ever been for the event with thunder and lightning storms. OCRA expressed thanks to everyone who braved the weather for the event.

The sports and fitness festival continues until the weekend. For more details visit http://www.ocrasport.org.uk">www.ocrasport.org.uk
