There are lots of opportunities to try orienteering this summer:
Click here for a flyer for a series of orienteering events in Guildford parks:
Friday 5 June - Guildford Spectrum
Friday 26 June - Stoke Park

At each of these events there will be people to help and explain the sport to newcomers and an orienteering course specially for newcomers and juniors. The Guildford club is keen for scout/guide and other young people's groups to attend. You can 'enter on the day' but please contact the organiser to let him know you are going to attend:
