WAOC 2002 Summer Galloppen |
|
The
WAOC summer galloppen is a series of low-key summer evening events, usually taking place
on Wednesday evenings. Starts will usually be from 6:00pm to
7:30pm, but you are advised to check this beforehand. The format of the
events will vary from event to event: Some may be the usual, "follow a course"
format (but with only two or three courses), some may be score events (where you
have to locate as many controls as you can in a limited amount of time), and
others may have devious variations (e.g. brown-only maps, with only the contour
features marked on them).
Courses should be suitable for all age groups, except perhaps the very young. If in doubt, it may be prudent to contact the planner/organiser beforehand. As we don't put phone numbers on the web, and not all organisers have email addresses, you can email enquiries@waoc.org.uk for more information.
There will be a small entry fee: £1-50 for adults, 50p for juniors
The events comprise a league, with probable prizes for the league winners in each age category. The following is the current list of events, some dates are still free and are awaiting volunteers to organise them. If you would like to volunteer then please contact Hally Hardie or email enquiries@waoc.org.uk
