Rosaryville
April 28
Saturday
Please note that with mountain bike orienteering planned in the morning, this event will not run on the schedule that has been usual this season. Instead starts will be offered from noon to 2pm with courses closing at 4pm, as was the practice at this time of year before this season. That said, Patti and Mark Mace have been hard at work on courses so here's hoping we get a fine spring day on which to enjoy them. The Maces will also bring the club library to the event.
Update: The meet registration area is in a covered pavilion with a couple of grills and picnic tables. Meet Directors John & Jody Landers will have the charcoal grills going by 12:30 and will supply a limited number of hot dogs and rolls for finishers. Participants are encouraged to bring a picnic lunch and something to grill for themselves.

Course Notes | Classic Orienteering The woods the courses will visit are generally runnable with thorny vegetation likely to be encountered in only a few spots. The trail network is complex - care will be required both reading the map to see the best route & following it, as well as deciding when it makes sense to leave the trails. If you aren't familiar with the park already, note that the trail network doesn't consist only of the usual beaten paths, indicated on the map with dashed black lines of varying thickness, but also includes grassy corridors through the woods, some of which have a well-defined trail running down the middle of them, some of which don't. Watch out for runners, hikers, bikes & horses. Trail rules for the park are that cyclists yield to pedestrians and everyone yields to horses. Please respect the park and surrounding land owners by not entering any out of bound areas (shown on the map with red crosshatching). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
