Checking the map at last year’s mini orienteering event<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As part of our fundraising drive for this year’s Highland Cross, our team #parentsontherun is again hosting a mini orienteering<\/strong> event suitable for all the family.<\/p>\n

If last year is anything to go by, it is set to be a fun day of exploring in the woods, with delicious home baking also available for a donation to the cause.<\/p>\n

The mini orienteering event will take place in School Wood at Farr<\/strong>, near Inverness, on Saturday, June 10, from 10am to 2pm<\/strong>. Come along anytime during that period and pick up a map before hunting out the checkpoints around the trees.<\/p>\n
