Halloween treasure hunt Nov 7th

Postby irlmin » Sat Oct 17, 2009 8:48 pm

Yes Folks its that time of year again , when you will be asked to brave the darkness and face your 'demons' on the dark and scary roads of County Cork , date is November 7th ( yes I know its a week after Halloween ) and the start will be in or near Midleton , start point and time will be announced very soon . we have been working on the route and clues and can promise a 'thrilling' evening . the event is open to members and Friends and its not necessary to use a Mini or MINI on the event in fact any vehicle will be fine as long as you promise to have lots of fun , as usual bring a reflective vest for everyone as well as a good torch ( with a decent battery ) and also make sure you have suitable footware as there will be some 'excursions' through some 'rural' terrain . final details will be posted here very soon , this is usually a good evenings fun and as we have used the Ballincollig region for the last 4 years We decided to change the event location this year , watch this space !!!!

START at MIDLETON PARK HOTEL 7.00 1st Car leaving at 7.30 sharp November 7th

With just over a Week to this event now , please note the venue which is the Midleton Park Hotel at 7 pm We plan on the 1st car leaving at 7.30 pm , remember also its fancy dress (optional ) but try to get into the spirit of things , the route will be easy to follow and you will have around 30 'cryptic clues' to figure out as well as gathering some 'scavenge' items to bring back for points . Please bring reflective vests and a decent torch and also suitable footwear as some of the territory may be unsuitable for high heels !!!!!!!!!! . please PM me or post here if you intend to attend this as we need to have an idea of numbers also it is NOT necessary to use a Mini or MINI on this event any car will be ok and also its open to any Family and Friends you may like to bring along for the fun .
