This is not a substitute for reading the final details and Day 1 information which are available online.
The Day 1 organising team would like to make you aware of the following:
- Firstly, a plea to anyone who would be able to help on a shift at the Blue/Green start or on a second shift at the Pre-Start Zone on exit from parking. Any offers gratefully received by Marsela, Day Organiser on 07752 300 378.
- A small addition to the general details for all days, is the use of an ‘Exit’ unit to punch as you go through the Pre-Start Zone; this is a safety check; marshals will guide you.
- A note about String and Off String courses: we have some great themed courses for our younger orienteers to look forward to each day from 10:00. Entry is free, including use of an SI card, a reward sticker and a lucky dip in the sweetie box.
- Moray 2023 keeps on giving with activities to try alongside the orienteering events. ESOC is organising a chance to try a 45-minute foot Turf event in Forres on Wednesday afternoon after sprint and before MTBO. Details at https://www.esoc.org.uk/moray-2023-turf-event
