Peter R S 408 Report post Posted May 30, 2020 The last week has seen the passing of Joan Bates at age 84, after illness following her departure from greyhound racing circles a few years ago. Joan will be remembered as the champion of Hutt Park working tirelessly for many years as Secretary of the Wellington Greyhound Racing Club, which self destructed as a club not too long after she left. I worked alongside Joan (assisting her with the financial management) and was impressed with her knowledge and determination; she was a good person with a great love of the sport. RIP Joan rouseabout, Camacho, Watsup and 1 other 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
