Festive period
Event reviews
We may not have had an event during the Christmas/ New Year period, but there were some other races attended by QO members. Some were prepared to travel far and wide to get their fix, with some mulled wine and Christmas themed quizzes thrown in for good measure.
Maps are changing
New symbols
The way things are mapped has changed. A useful pictorial guide by Berkshire OC explains the effect of the new mapping standards.
Christmas message
from the President
A very big thank you to all the members and friends of Quantock Orienteers who have worked so hard during 2017 to make such a thriving club.
Wells event
Urban & woodland
A novel offering from Bristol OK - two forest-based courses and two urban courses - attracted 16 members and JOGgers to north Somerset to what was the last race to be held locally before Christmas
Last Club Night of term
Presentation & after dark run
We finished the term in
style at the COACH club house - about 20 folk ventured out on a festive night event in French Weir Park.

Cothelstone Hill JOG
It was bitterly cold but dry day for the last JOG of the Autumn Term. Richard Sansbury planned some excellent courses using the area well to test competitor's skills at each level.
Club nights
Autumn 2017
Our grant-funded programme included presentations and sessions that promoted learning about and enjoying the sport. It also provided a rare opportunity to socialise and train with fellow orienteers!
Dartmoor event cancelled
Holne Moor
Devon OC reported early on the morning of the event: "The organising team have reluctantly decided to cancel today's event due to the dangerously high winds this morning." For more, see Devon OC's Facebook page.
Forest of Dean Galoppen

New members
A warm welcome to...
Millfield Prep School pupils Leon Harmes, Hannah Hayes, Joseph Cox and Zachary Lees. JOG has been delighted to welcome Matt Carter's mini bus full of boys and girls regularly on Saturday afternoons.
Vivary Park JOG
Brrrr
When there's an after dark event afterwards, the JOG session is for some a warm up...but not at Vivary Park it wasn't! Although the sun was out, it was such a bitterly cold afternoon it actually felt warmer at the QOAD event
