Armidale's annual schools orienteering gala day at Dumaresq Dam last week drew another big crowd amid perfect weather.
Most of the massive turnout of 673 students did a one-hour score course, while the more experienced older students chose from an easy or moderate line course.
The Bush n Beach club, a mere three hours' drive away, sent a small posse and cleaned up some of the age classes.
Thanks to Alec Watt, Maurice Anker, David Symons and the rest of the Northern Tablelands club for another great outing.
This was our final regional schools carnival for the year and took our 2016 attendance for these events to an impressive 2,169. Thanks to all our carnival organiser and helpers.
