Exciting Orienteering Opportunity: "The Great Map Race"

"The Great Map Race" is an event for families and school groups to give
them a fun introduction to orienteering.

It will happen in Hagley Park on Sunday 14th June from 10-1pm.

Turn up any time between those times and stay as long or little as you want! Suitable for all ages, even babies in buggies!

It is being run as a fund raiser for 5 Canterbury under 21 Juniors who have been selected to be in the New Zealand team to compete in the Junior World Orienteering Championships in Norway in July. The NZ team is 6 boys 6 girls, so these 5 Canterbury juniors are a large proportion of the ful team!

A range of activities will be available including an introductory orienteering course, a rogaine and a maze with electronic timing!

See attached flyer for details.

To help with map printing numbers, please email your numbers to jean.corywright@gmail.com

But don't worry if you forget to do this, you can still turn up!

Join us in a fun way to support these great young people!
