SHOE CLINIC PORIRUA

Our Olympic Club is supported by the SHOE CLINIC IN PORIRUA: If you're looking for running or walking shoes, spikes or running gear go and see Jeremy and his team at Shoe Clinic in the North City Shopping Centre in Porirua. They can order in shoes especially for you if they're not on the shop floor. They're very helpful and give 10% of your sale back to the club - you just need to say you're an Olympic member. Sign up with them and they'll keep track of your purchases. Once you reach $500 they give you a $50 gift voucher:
