A re-posting of the recent club email, as it can be useful to have this information searchable, linkable and commentable.
With orienteering resuming and only a short window where the vegetation and permissions allow good non-urban events to be held, there’s a lot on in the south-west in September. Here are a few highlights…
4 September - QO Club Championships
A decade blocks score event using SI punching. All are welcome to come and take part but only club members are in the running for the title of club champion.
11 September - JOG1 - Sampson’s Wood
Our first JOG of the new season is at a new venue in Yeovil. Mapped and planned by one of our younger members, this promises to be a good start you the series.
You can either come along 1400-1500 on the Saturday when control flags will be out, or any time on the Sunday when you can use GPS punching.
12 September - DEV League 1 - Whitchurch Common
The joys of Dartmoor.
12 September WIM/SLOW MTB Orienteering - Salisbury
Ever tried combining mountain biking and orienteering? It’s a lot of fun - a bit like the original horseback events.
18-19 September - WSX/WIM Caddihoe Weekend
Saturday: South West Middle Distance Championships
Sunday: South West Long Distance Championships
See a pretty comprehensive list of south-west events. You’ll see QO events first, and then those from other clubs.
