Winter Run-Around

This Saturday, around the whole of South Yorkshire the annually held Winter Run-Around is taking place.

Explorer teams consisting of 4 to 8 members will be racing each other aiming to complete the most activity bases that will be situated at most Explorer HQs across South Yorkshire.

FOR WVU TEAMS TAKING PART:
- Teams need to meet at the Unit for 8am.
- If you haven't paid your individual entry fee, you need to make sure you bring £6.50 on the day to cover your pass fee.
- The event will finish at Hesley Wood Scout Camp at 1600 (4pm) where ALL teams need to report to the site by 1600 at the latest to finish.

Good Luck to all WVU teams and make sure you win in order to defend our winning title from last year! Read about last year's WVU victory here: Winter Runaround / Bone of Contention
