Report

Hopefully you all enjoyed exploring the Dunollie area. What a great turnout!

With thanks to Dunolliebeg Farm, to Stramash for letting us use their car park, and to Alan, Ross, Gill and Jan for help on the day and with collecting courses.

Also a huge thanks must go to Andy for planning and organising the event and I think we all agree that he provided three very imaginative courses which allowed us to explore the Dunollie area thoroughly.
