Permanent orienteering courses installed at Dumfries park

Permanent orienteering courses have been installed at Dumfries’ flagship Castledykes Park – thanks to the town’s People’s Project.

Pupils from Georgetown, St Michael’s and St Andrew’s RC primary schools, St Andrew’s Nursery, and St Joseph’s College were the first to try it out.

The People’s Project volunteers worked with Solway Orienteers, Active Schools, St Joseph’s College PE department, Signcraft, Dumfries and Galloway Council and HM Prison Dumfries to create the extra attractions which were requested by local schools in a public survey conducted by the charity to see what amenities the park could add.
