SUFFOC mid-week street-O Event 1
Tuesday 10th November
Entries open 1st Oct
A series of evening street-O events using the Maprun app.
Suffolk Orienteering Club presents 6 informal evening street-O events this winter, using the Maprun app on your mobile phone.
Each event will be launched on the second Tuesday of the month, but will remain available to run in your own time for 4 weeks following the event date.
The 6-event series will be a mini-league format with prizes awarded at the end of the season for best performance for both men and women. The best five out of 6 scores will be added up for the overall total.
As these events are street events, entries can only be made by over-16s. Under-16s can be accompanied by a responsible adult.
We will meet at or near a pub on the day of the event, and hope that you will join us afterwards for a social drink and/or food (and a debrief).
Special offer:
Enter the whole series and get all 6 events for the price of 5.
Dates and provisional venues:
Tuesday 10th November: The Magpie, Combs Ford, Stowmarket
Tuesday 8th December - The Macebearer, Hardwick, Bury St Edmunds
Tuesday 12th January - The Crown, Claydon, Ipswich
Tuesday 9th February - The Tavern, Elmswell
