On Thursday 29 October we are hosting a special Halloween clubnight at the Great Linford Cricket Pavilion.
We will have a selection of fun, Halloween themed orienteering activities giving you the chance to practice orienteering skills! All the controls will be within the cricket ground so we won't be venturing very far but come prepared for the challenge with some warm clothes, a compass, dibber (we will have compasses and dibbers you can borrow if you don't have your own) and a headtorch as it will be dark and spooky! Halloween themed additions to your O-kit are strongly encouraged!
We have hired an indoor venue (the cricket pavilion) so please arrive at 18:45 so we can get started at 19:00.
After the activities we'll be having some Halloween themed refreshments in the pavilion.
Everyone is welcome! The event is free for club members (£3 for non-members) and is suitable for both beginners and more experienced orienteers.
Please email Freya to register for the event and reserve a map or if you have any questions.

This year we will be offering club night activities every Thursday from April 9th to the end of July. These will be a mixture of our Summer MapRun League which are forest events, Sprint Orienteering Training and “stick-map” MapRun urban activities around Milton Keynes and beyond. All events are free for SMOC members and just £2 for non-members. Starts will be between 6.30pm and 7pm, extending to 7.15pm when it starts to get a bit lighter in the evenings!
We will usually try to start and finish the MapRun urban activities at a pub or café so we can have a drink and a chat after our runs and compare routes!
For all the activities you will need to download the MapRun app to your phone. See our MapRun page for more information. More detailed information on the location of each event will be available nearer the time.
Our clubnight co-ordinator is Freya Askham.
