The Autumn 2011 Letterboxing Meet took place at Lee Moor Village Hall.
The event was organised by Lorraine O’Sullivan who is kindly giving the donations from this event to the Devon GSD Rescue. Lorraine has organised a walk of approximately 5.5 km around Brat Tor. Box 20 is the “Devon German Shepherd Dog Rescue stamp”.
The following is a definition of letterboxing:
“Letterboxing is an outdoor pursuit with similarities to orienteering. A small pot (the letterbox) containing a stamp and visitors' book is hidden on the moor, and a clue is written to lead others to its position. Clues may be as simple as a map reference and list of compass bearings, or may be more cryptic. When a letterbox is found, the letterboxer takes a copy of the stamp, as well as leaving their own personal print in the visitors' book. Letterboxing began on Dartmoor but is now popular in areas all over the world.”
If you would like to know more about the Brat Tor walk or find out more about this interesting hobby please contact Lorraine here
We are extremely grateful for a cheque for £227.50 which we have received from Lorraine.
