Event Report
We were very lucky with the weather – a bright clear day on the Law. And lucky with the ponies – they didn’t nibble any controls this year.
Many thanks to all who came to compete and to our army of helpers. Special thanks to Jamie for planning popular courses and finding some new control sites even in such a small mapped area.

Butterdean Wood
Saturday 29th November 2025
Butterdean is near Gladsmuir village between Tranent and Haddington. It is a flat wood densely planted with conifers and patches of birch or ash. There is a good track and path network – and some animal sculptures. It is managed by the Woodland Trust and East Lothian Council.
Please note that we are parking on the east side of the wood at Alba Trees – see detailed directions below.
This will be ELO’s club championship for 2025 – more details below.

This year’s Festive Frolic is at Levenhall Links on Sunday 28th December and will continue our grand tradition.
