POSTPONED - Evening rogaine. Orton Bradley

THE EVENTS AT ORTON BRADLEY THIS WEEKEND HAVE BEEN POSTPONED. 
They have had 300mm of rain over the last 2 days and there is a lot of damage and flooding at the park.
We will work with Orton Bradley on an alternative date once they have had time to assess damages.

The Orton Bradley weekend will have a rogaine on Sat evening and a classic OY on Sunday. We recommend camping at Orton Bradley on Saturday night, providing a good chance to meet fellow orienteers. Great start to the orienteering year in Canterbury!
