Our Spring 2008 Overnight Challenge had more activity bases than any of our previous events have ever had. There were 16 hidden in the darkness of Sherwood Pines Forest Park to challenge our teams. As well as some familiar favourites from previous events there were several surprises as well.
The tables below tell you how many teams made it to each of the main activity bases as well as the other controls.
