Night Orienteering at Camp Seph Mack

Time Table for 24 October 2009:

6:00 - 6:45 pm
Registration for those who haven't registered and signing of the waiver for those who have preregistered. To preregister, send e-mail to jlwolfe@atlanticbb.net and state how many of you are coming and what your names are. Payment will be collected at the meet; the fee is $4 per person and each person will get a map. Preregistration is preferred so that we are sure we have enough maps.

7:00 pm
Briefing about the event with map, clue and punch card distribution. At this time, we will want to make sure everyone is properly equipped for night orienteering. The course is a score-O with about 40 controls worth varying numbers of points. All controls will be marked with the usual orange and white nylon bag and have a rod wrapped in reflective tape directly above the bag.

7:30 pm
Mass Start for everyone. You will have 2 1/2 hours to find as many points as you can. Lateness penalties will be rather severe. The course closes promptly at 10:00 pm; you must return by this time because we will begin taking down the course at that time. All participants must return to the start/finish by 10:15 pm.

Required equipment:
Compass (we will loan you one if necessary),
Light (with spare batteries or a second backup light),
Whistle (we will sell you one if you don't have one).
