The not-to-be missed event of the Uringan calendar year! (If you did miss it, put the last Saturday in November in your diary for 2017.)
- Venue by Matt and Helen - congenial spaces, a chance to look over the recent renovations, and cricket on the TV for those in need. Unfortunately, located at the top of the hill.
- President's Cup event - Matt on behalf of club president Linda set a Hunters Hill challenge that required negotiation (teams of two deciding who would go where) and questions at control sites which required close reading (and occasionally some extra knowledge: who knew that Mary Reibey was once featured on the $20 note?, and to find out why Mary Reibey was important just ask Matt). There were two cartographic questions to trip up the runners.
- Food by everyone - yet again Uringans surpassed themselves, especially with tasty salads and desserts to die for.
- Santa Claus - of course.
- Giving out of undistributed badges (2014, 2015 . . .), Metro medals and NOSH mugs
