A new improved service is now available from Schools Orienteering Associations for the mapping of school grounds and nearby Parks for orienteering. We will produce an orienteering map of your school or nearby Park and give you 50 colour copies for just eur 50 only (the remainder of the cost is subsidised by us). If interested, please give the exact position of your school or send us a location sketch and we will do the rest as we are now in the position of being able to obtain base maps of your school or nearby park for you.
