SummerNav Field1 Mangere Centre Park Event: 16 2020-03-05
Planner: Emily Hayes    -    Controller: Tommy Hayes
Tonight’s map is a bit of a different one with the motorway running through the middle of it so it creates quite a challenge for the course setter. However,  Emily and Tommy did a great job allowing people to enjoy this map only being used for the second time. The model railway area is particularly fun!  Although the numbers were a bit smaller tonight it was another lovely night for running and it was a pleasure to welcome visitors from Sweden – the home of orienteering, as well other newcomers and the Balmoral Scouts.

The SummerNav orienteering next week is on Wednesday the 11th March. We are on a new map so something new to try. We hope we’ll have a course for bikes too – so if you are a cyclist bring your bike along (and have a map board too, if possible). (Please check our website to confirm that a biking course will exist.)  We’re starting about halfway along Greenwood Rd; the camper and a few helpers cars will be in a small area off the road but everyone else will park on the road edge.  Accessing Greenwood Rd from either Ascot Rd or Creamery Rd will work just fine. Courses 2, 3 & 4 are in a dog area so it would fine for you to bring your dog along. Unfortunately dogs are not allowed on a substantial part of course 1 – sorry. There is a dog bath but no toilets at this park despite it being owned by Watercare – sorry.

The first of the Sunday events is on this Sunday, the 8th of March, at one of Auckland’s Regional parks – Tapapakanga Regional Park. This is a very pretty park on the edge of the Firth of Thames about 1 hour 10 mins south of Central Auckland. This event is run by the Counties Manakau OC.
