Xmas 5-days entries are open

Last Updated: Friday, 24 October 2014 12:01

We know you've been waiting patiently, and we're pleased to announce that entries are now open for our annual end-of-year carnival - to be held for the first time in the Sydney metro area.

Georges Heights, Cockatoo Island, Pyrmont, Lapstone and Centennial Park are our stunning event locations. Along with our Xmas bush regulars, we'd love to see lots of the summer series crowd join in - you can enter the lot, or whichever days take your fancy.

For 2014, with the except of Day 4 (Lapstone) the Xmas 5-Days takes on a distinctly urban feel. Full details are on the flyer, and entries via EventorDay 3 at Pyrmont (see pic) will also count towards the Sydney Summer Series.

We have random prize draws for October, November and December thanks to our generous donors. Pre-entry is strongly recommended as we will have only a limited number of EOD maps available.

We anticipate several tour groups from Europe en route to Tasmania the following week for the World Cup round, not to mention the Oceania championships being held in conjunction.

We are still confirming the exact location of the last day, which is an ultra sprint somewhere within Centennial Parklands. To find out more about this exciting micro version of orienteering, read the flyer.

Entries close December 14. More information is available on the Xmas 5-Days web page. Tell your friends. All events are easily reached by public transport and offer great sightseeing opportunities.
