Yoxter & Dartmoor
Two regional events
Not only did JOG start again but there were four regional events nearby this weekend! There were two events on the Mendips. On Sunday, there was a choice between Dartmoor or Wiltshire woodland.
Results: Mendips (day) / Dartmoor

Young Wood preview
We have a new venue for our third Forest League event of the season and everything still to play for in the league. With three scoring runs still available, people who haven't run yet could still win in each of the seven leagues.

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.

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.

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.
