I´m not yet part of the official organization - but my club Stora Tuna OK is one of the organizing clubs. If you have any questions that are not answered on the
official website I´ll be happy to try and give appropriate information.
When it comes to maps and competition areas I won´t be able to reveal more than what´s already shown on the website.
can you post a copy of the maps ^_^
thanks in advanced
