NEHL Thornley : Team Photos

Apologies for the delay, here they are, your team photos from NEHL Thornley



































NEHL Alnwick POSTPONED

NEHL Alnwick, Saturday 3rd March, is POSTPONED. Given the weather conditions and forecast for the rest of the week we've had to consider the effect on car parking, travel, and marshaling etc. Possible new date is the 17th March. We know this is the same date as the English Schools XC, but we have to look at dates which have the least impact on the majority of competitors. Will keep you informed on here, Facebook, and Twitter

NEHL Thornley Hall Farm, Saturday 10th February

THORNLEY HALL FARM FIXTURE 5
Hi, looks like Thornley weather for the weekend! Just a few things ahead of Saturday:
1. We need some volunteers for marshaling for the fixture to run as smoothly as possible. Could do with around a dozen more. Please post here or message Micky, Vicki or me.
2. The course map is attached. Pretty much the Feb 2017 course but the other way around. Thanks to Dave Daniels for sorting this. 
3. Parking will be as last year. Please park as directed and have £2 ready for payment.

4. Big thanks to Blackhill Bounders for hosting the event.

Look forward to seeing folks at the weekend. Enjoy!



Getting there:

Postcode for today's event is DH6 3LY

Parking arrangements for Thornley.

Due to the lack of volunteers there will be NO tent drop off point as we can’t manage that area and park the cars at the same time.

So if you have a large tent get there early so you are parked at the nearest point to the course.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Traffic coming from Durham.
There is strictly NO right turn into the farm you have to go to the roundabout and come back up the road, and it’s the second entrance this is the safest option.The first entrance is only for officials, emergency vehicles and the people who live on the farm.
Parking is £2 per vehicle so please have it ready, please listen to instructions as where and how to park, this is to avoid any congestion and for your safety.
Thank you for your cooperation in this.
