Planners notes on Swinley East event

Hope everyone had a good run out and found challenges on what is a mixed area.  The ever changing landscape and inaccessible areas of a working forest made creating suitable courses quite difficult, which, alongside our relative lack of planning experience and never ending rain meant that both we and our controller(s) had plenty of correspondence and many trips into the forest before everyone was happy. We got there in the end though, and the overall feedback seemed positive.  Certainly everyone looked suitably tired and dishevelled on their return, and that seems like a good trip out to me.  

Thank you to all of our volunteers, without whom events cannot take place, and thanks to all who took part. We look forward to seeing you at our next BKO event on 7th December which is night orienteering at Star Posts (great fun and not to be missed! )
