Lostockers participated in the club’s annual treasure hunt. This is one of the highlights of the club calendar. This is a friendly competition, with some members taking the event more seriously than others!
This year’s hunt took place around Westhoughton, Aspull and Borsdane Woods. Members were given a map and clues expertly prepared by Mark Smith. Members are then have 90 minutes to find as many clues as they can, with some members covering over 7 miles.
This year’s winners were Chris T, Karen and Chris B.
We would like to thank Janet and Ian for hosting the event.
