Yo Team, There's a 3 week series of rogaines coming up you might want to think about doing... Here's a bit of basic info, but if your keen check out www.madeventz.co.nz/tmrogaine
Each event will start at 6pm (maps available from 5pm) beginning with a short safety briefing. Competitors will then head into the hills in teams of two or more to collect as many checkpoints as possible within a 3 hour period. The checkpoints vary in value and teams compete to finish with the greatest quantity of points.
For overall series placing?s competitors must participate in all 3 events.
The events involve navigation, strategy and teamwork and cater for a wide range of competitors from gurus to newbies to the sport of rogaining. A classic rogaine format runs over 12 to 24 hours, so these fun 3 hour rogaines are a great chance for beginners to tackle a more achievable length.
The series will kick off on October 14th at Rapaki Track, and then relocate to a different spot around the stunning Port Hills each Wednesday. So grab some friends and get a team together for some super fun Wednesday evenings!
Event 1: Wednesday 14 th October ? Rapaki Track
Event 2: Wednesday 21st October ? Halswell Quarry (TBC)
Event 3: Wednesday 28th October - Sumner
The standard price is $25 per person per event, with a series entry fee of $65 per person. (The series entry fee must be paid in full before or at the first event). Students or unwaged prices are $20 per person night, or series entry of $50 per person. Teams can enter on the night, but they must pre-enter to be guaranteed a map!
Make cheques out to: Eleonora Audra, or you can do automatic transfer to the account Eleonora Audra 06 0801 0312960 00 and put your name in the reference box and TMR in the other box.
