This weekend is the start of the winter series with the first of 7 NavDash events.
The courses are mainly in parkland so the control sites are mostly on visible features, not in nooks and crannies as can be the case in heavily built areas. Come and enjoy a pleasant area beside the Canning River (which was actually flowing 2 weeks before the event).
If you're up for the challenge, see how quickly you can get round the course without mispunching. You're always welcome to run another course afterwards if you want to (no additional charge).
If you want to take things at a more leisurely place, that's no problem. Running's not compulsory - just be back at the assembly area by 12 noon. As the controls are close together, NavDash events are great to keep little ones engaged - just watch out for those dashing round the course.
Please pre-enter if you can, and read the Information flyer that is on the event page in Eventor.
