Competition Winner
Winner ‘Love for the Outdoors’
Local women Heidi Baker from Barbrook, Lynton wins the Active Exmoor writing competition ‘Love for the Outdoors’ receiving up £200 for her great efforts. Heidi’s article will be featured in the 2009 Active Exmoor Magazine, so be sure to pick up your copy.
Active Exmoor is producing a magazine on Exmoor detailing all of the outdoor activities, everything from walking to coaststeering and sporting events that take place on Exmoor in 2009. The magazine is going to act as a guide book to those visiting Exmoor and looking for something ‘Active’ to do during their stay.
Heidi Baker says “I love Exmoor and everything that there is to do here. I have lived here all my life. The walking, cycling and riding opportunities are fantastic and the magazine will be a great way to tell the visitors what the best bits of Exmoor are”.
The magazine will have a vast selection of walking, cycling and riding routes throughout Exmoor that you can take with you on your holidays. It will also have a selection of sample itineraries and recommend places to stop for a bite to eat on your adventures.
Mike Bishop of Active Exmoor says “We had a fantastic response for the competition and a big thank you to everyone who entered. We all found Heidi’s article inspiring and it is an excellent insight into Exmoor through someone else’s eyes, it captures the moment making us feel as if we were with her too, you’ll have to pick up a copy of our magazine in the New Year to read for yourself”.
The magazine will be available across the South West early in 2009 and will be promoting Exmoor as the place to take an active affordable short break. The Active Exmoor magazine is financially supported by the Exmoor Sustainable Development Fund.
