The committee are considering purchasing some additional Emit cards.
If any members would like to buy their own card, we may be able to get a big enough order together to get a discount.
The club is planning to buy V3 cards (with display), available for £40. These have been used at one event and are ex-hire.
New V2 cards are also available - list price is also £40.
If you are interested let me know on enquiries [at] southampton-orienteers.org.uk (enquiries[at]southampton-orienteers[dot]org[dot]uk) and I will coordinate with the committee.
