Yes, its on again. The Bollington Slightly Surreal Street Orienteering at The Vale Wednesday 21st December.
Arrive at 6.40 for registration, and a quick route strategy session with your team before a 7pm start. Finish at 8.30
Everyone is welcome and it is free (although I may welcome donations for East Cheshire Hospice).
The new format this year is as follows:
1. Get together in advance with 2 others to form a team of 3 (or bunch up on the night) and receive 3 maps and 3 check point descriptions per team
2 Your team has 90 minutes to get to as many checkpoints as they can and return to the start
3. You work out who goes where. Stay together or split up. Some checkpoints are marked as more than others, but each checkpoint can only count once per team.
4. There is a 10 point penalty for each minute late for each team member – so don’t be late !!!
5. At the finish I would like each time to amalgamate their results onto 1 sheet per team
5. Points means prizes
It is mostly on roads and paths - but not entirely, so bring a headtorch and a pencil each, and trail shoes and a polly bag for your map if it's likely to be wet.
The new puppy, Ziggy, will also be on show!
