Southern Area Hedge Hop
Saturday 27th February 2010

 

Yes, its that time of year again.. from 6-30pm ...time to start hopping hedges!
 
It's a team event - 3 or 4 people to a team. If you don't have a team you can just turn up and we'll sort the teams out on the night. It's a timed 4 mile walk/jog along country roads in the dark. Along the route there are clues for you to answer. If that sounds easy enough, there will be spotters in cars patrolling the route. If they spot any of the team members you get a time penalty. (Hence why it's called a hedgehop!)

But you lose points if you are spotted, by us lot roaming round in cars looking for you!  Hence the title...sometimes you are required to hide in fields or hop over hedges to avoid us!

Teams will need to bring a torch or two  a pen or two and a mobile phone.

Venue this year is THE CORONATION ARMS St. Mary Bourne nr. Andover (postcode SP11 6AR). 
 
£1 admission to cover organisers costs. This will include food afterwards at 10pm (soup sandwiches and chips). funded by southern area Food will be for people that take part first people that are just planning to come to the pub for a social will have wait.
 
Please contact Leo Glover if you wish to take part.

See you there (well obviously not if you are good at hiding!).
 
Please do support this - it's a lot of fun!

With the Weather this week please bring a change of foot wear as the pub has had new carpet fitted and don't want muddy boots all over it.
