guidance issued ahead of neHl season opener

The North East Harrier League returns on Saturday with the first fixture of the new season at Wrekenton.
Ahead of the event, host club Saltwell Harriers have issued a notice to participants and spectators relating to some changes that have taken place to the layout from previous years.
The club said: "Gateshead Council have planted thousands of very young saplings indistinguishable within the undergrowth and we want to minimise any disturbance to the area. The council have worked very positively with Saltwell Harriers to enable this venue to be used for the cross-country and we do not want to jeopardise this for future years."
The area normally used for club tents is now off limits so the tents will need to go to other areas nearby. To avoid the new trees, some of the junior races will be a little shorter than usual for Wrekenton. Pack handicap times will be adjusted accordingly (see map). 
Please can all Morpeth Harriers, parents and friends respect the work done.  
Travel: the best route is usually over the Tyne Bridge and following the signs for Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead; the venue is less than a mile after this. Please park sensibly and don't do anything to jeopardise future use of the venue also. 
Times are on the NEHL website, and also information regarding packs etc. Link is here: http://www.harrierleague.com/
Club tent and flag will be up, and Peter Scaife will have all race numbers. 
See you there and let's look to pick up where we left off last season!
