Thank you everyone for joining us on a very wet day today at Burnt Turkey and Green Sprouts (otherwise known as Burnt Woods and Green Hows!), for the second of the Turkey events - we hope you all enjoyed your courses and running on a new area!
As always, our events are put on by a number of volunteers - thanks go to Iain for planning, Lecky for Safety Controlling, Clare for newcomer welcome, the control collectors - Derek F, Carol M and Mark S, huge thanks for going back out into the forest and the SI Team of Ali & Mike.
