MONOPOLY RUN 2012 - RESULTS

Thankyou to all that attended this years monopoly run competition. We had 42 explorer and 9 leader/network teams.

It was certainly a challenge both for the competitors who were only given the locations on the morning, and the organisers because of the increase in number of teams from last year. The weather held out and the teams had a great time searching for the locations and trying to find the answers to the questions.


 

 

THIS YEARS EVENT....
In previous years we've used all the traditional London Monopoly locations. However,  this year locations were changed to keep the competition interesting and to introduce a level playing field.    Places visited this year included:

2012 RESULTS
Thanks to everyone who entered the event - we hope you enjoyed the interesting locations and questions. There were superb team efforts with some running to most of the locations. Overall there were 51 teams made up of 42 Explorer and 9 Leader teams looking to capture 50 photographs and answering 29 questions with a maximum possible score of £1932.

Apart from some technical issues which meant that the results were not announced until 9am Sunday morning, the event was a great success and we hope to see the teams again in the future.  Photos are available by clicking on the individual team name below. 

EXPLORER RESULTS
The overall winners of the Explorer event were the team 'March Hares' from Hatters ESU, Southgate, London with a total score of £1265.
