Perrie, Drusilla Leitch and Ethel Walker came first in the triathlon event in the local district but the triathlon was not offered at the Actifest games this year. It was the second gold in triathlon for the three women who won last year in St. Marys. Perrie says Walker came second this year in the predict- All=1111- ed walk in the district games.
