Chair's report 2020
Well, 2020 is certainly going to go down in the history books as a “different” year. I know we’ve all faced challenges and disruptions that we could never have imagined a year ago. Asa club it has been a particular challenge as we thrive on being social. We’ve had to make some massive adjustments to the way we do things. One thing that has been very clear this year is how we support each other within the club to make things work, whatever restrictions life throws at us.

It has been a relatively quiet time since the last eNews - this is all about to change with the recently issued guidelines. Yes we can orienteer in our local forest areas, albeit a small group at a time.
