The annual Uringa Christmas party offer something for everyone!
The President's Cup Race was set this year by Matt on behalf of the president. There was first a map component, followed by a trivia quiz* on return. Time taken for both contributed to final scores. No clues were given to runners about the trivia quiz; however, Matt did advise everyone to carefully observe their surroundings during their runs.
And when they returned...
they tackled the Trivia Quiz* and reviewed their maps.

Then they were off...those running/riding/walking on the course.
And when they returned...
they tackled the Trivia Quiz* and reviewed their maps.
There was much socialising and relaxation with old friends and new.
There was a feast...
Santa Claus arrived as always.
The President's Cup/s were awarded.
State League orienteering badges were distributed.
And Gayle thanked Helen and Matt for again offering their home for the club's party.
Thanks to official photographer Aldo.
