Weekend March 24-25

The plan this weekend for our group (Bryan, Leon, Jimbo and me) was to have a bit of a mini Easter with 3 races within almost 24hrs. The purpose of these trainings is to work on racing and technical skills of orienteering, although these terrains maybe a little more techncial than those you find at Easter in Burra they are skills you will always need as a successfull orienteer. It's also a good time to get into your own race procedures so its not unfamiliar come 2weeks.

Am: Meet up 10:30am sharp @ Chewton shops (it's on the road into Castlemaine from Melb.) then driving 5mins to the diggings wheel.
