Grampian Advenure Challenge 2016
This 'corporate challenge' organised by Gramp runs in conjunction with the Wednesday evening Summer Series events and is a great opportunity to get new faces involved in orienteering.
Why not get a group together at work to compete for the 'bonsai trophy'? Events are 25th May (Hazlehead) until 29th June (Balmedie and the presentation BBQ), with 2 training events to bring your team along to on the 11th (Balmedie) and 18th May (Tilquhillie).
Full details on the Gramp website and there is a flyer here.
