  • General Coaching Session - If any other people planning on doing the rogaine would like some coaching beforehand this will also be available.  You must email orienteeringbop@gmail by Wednesday 26th June so we know how many coaches to have available.  Meet at registration at 9.45am for the coaching session.  You must have registered for the event before this.
