The local Orienteering club, Humberside and Lincolnshire Orienteers (HALO) are organising an Orienteering event this Saturday (November 16th) on Beverley Westwood.
The Westwood is always a very popular orienteering area, as it provides physical and technical challenges in the former quarry areas as well as easier path routes for beginners.
The event is very suitable for families or individuals and coaching will be available if required. Parking and registration will be on Newbald Road, close to where the ice-cream/burger van is normally situated.
The Saturday Events are aimed at beginners to the sport but always include a technical course for the more able. There will be four courses as normal: White (junior beginners); Yellow (improving juniors); Orange (adult beginners and experienced juniors) and Technical (experienced Orienteers). Starts will be anytime between 1pm and 3pm.
Entry fees are £3 for adults and £1.50 for juniors. This includes free hire of the chips which are used for the electronic timing of the event. Harder courses can be attempted for no extra charge after successful completion of the easier courses.
Full details of these and all HALO events can be found on the club web-site (www.halo-orienteering.org.uk). Further information is also available by emailing neil@halo-orienteering.org.uk
HALO also runs a weekly club night at Beverley Longcroft School on Mondays (6:30pm to 8:00pm) during term-time. New members always welcome.
