Saturday 4th March 2023 brings an activity at the small Cambusdoon Park. There will be a Yellow course for Juniors and Novices and a Map Memory for the more experienced.

Cambusdoon Park is a small area near the River Doon in Alloway, an estate which housed a school, now demolished and currently owned by South Ayrshire Council. This is a training map at 1:2500. The area has a large playing field and a deciduous woodland sloping down to the river. The usual leg cover and whistle are recommended. Dogs on leads only.

 

£5 per family and £2 per individual, strictly cash on the day, exact change only. Pre entry only by filling in the Google form.

 

 

Entries close at 10.30 pm on Thursday 2nd March 2023 (this is to allow enough time to print maps).
