from Ed Catmur. This was due to take
place in mid summer but has been brought
forward due to the cancellation of the OK Nuts event.

OK NUTS 2000 CANCELLED
Due
to the continuing foot and mouth crisis the re-scheduled date of 13th
May, 2001 is now off. We regret that we
will not now be able to run this event.
Those competitors who re-entered the event by mid-March will get a
refund. Members of SEOA will get a
voucher for a run at a future SLOW event (not badge). Members of clubs outside the South-East will get a cash refund
made out to their club. This is in
order to try and keep down wasteful bank charges.

News:
The
training day on 8th April is still going ahead but on Wimbledon Common instead
(land permission permitting but not expected to be a problem).
The
current plan is to use the Robin Hood Lane car park (access off the A3 about
half way down the strip of fields south of the clubhouse). Other details as in
SLOWPRINT (junior and senior training, beginners welcome). This is a rare
chance to exercise your O-shoes which may be in danger of falling into
permanent disuse... Please let me
know by 28th March if you will be coming and what sort of training you would
like. I look forward to seeing you there.

Heather Walton.

'OK
Nuts 2000' event looks highly vulnerable to cancellation (Foot &
Mouth).
This event was rescheduled for May 13th 2001 from Dec 10th 2000. The
event area, Winterfold, is adjacent to farm land and the car park normally has
sheep on it. There are also deer living in the woods. We currently have entries
from all over England, including infected areas. This makes the event extremely
vulnerable in the current crisis, with reported cases still occurring daily.
The BOF suggested guideline is for events to allow a six-week clear period from
the last reported outbreak before proceeding. Regardless of any time scale, our
landowners may withdraw permission anyway.
This means that SLOW will make a final decision by the end of March, but
at this stage it does not look too hopeful that the event will go ahead. We
will write to all currently entered competitors if this occurs using the
envelopes provided. We have frozen any new entries and are not issuing a new
flyer. Please note that not all previously entered competitors have confirmed
whether they wish to keep their entries. Despite the uncertainty over the new
date I would be grateful if competitors who have not yet replied would do so as
soon as possible.

'Please
note that the OK Nuts 2000, postponed from Dec 10th 2000, will now take place
on Winterfold on Sunday May 13th, 2001 (subject to land permission). We should
be able to use the original car park and courses as planned. The new SEOA SI
kit will also be available then. Entries will stand as they are unless
competitors have changed age groups. We will be writing to competitors within
the next few days to let them know about the rescheduled date. A new flyer will
appear shortly, we will be able to accept some new entries but there will be a
limit on some courses as we can only use the maps overprinted for the original
event in December.', Andrew Trimble (SLOW).

Apologies
for the lack of information about the OK Nuts 2000 badge event which was cancelled
at short notice due to a saturated car park. We are trying to reschedule the
event for FEB 25th 2001. (The Chiltern Challenge planned for this date has been
cancelled). Start times and details for your original entry will probably stand
unless you have changed age class in 2001. We will send out information to all
pre-entries who supplied a result envelope as as soon as land permissions have
been confirmed. New entries will be accepted, watch out for a new flyer.
