Report
We hope you all enjoyed your runs around Lammas Land and Coe Fen today. As well as being the monthly Park-O, the Cambridge University Orienteering Club used this event for their annual "Cuppers" match (which is why there was an Extra Long course in addition to the usual Short, Medium, and Long).
Our next Park-O will be at Milton Country Park on 18th May - we hope to see you there.
