On Sunday, November 8 we will have an orienteering event on a brand new map in Eno River State Park.  The event is open only to ‘expert’ orienteers – those who have successfully completed a brown, green, or red course.  The registration page is here. There are several start windows to chose from.

Check-in at the shelter near Bobbitt Hole parking lot (GPS coordinates = 36.058153, -78.980601) to receive your map.  Note that this is NOT our usual Eno River park location – it’s a separate south eastern portion of the park we haven’t used before.

We will implement the following procedures to help with social distancing.

1.  When you register, you must select a specific 30-minute start window between 11 AM and 1:00 PM.  When 10 people have chosen a window, it will be closed.

2.  There will be no beginner courses, no beginner class, no plastic map bags (please remember to bring your own), and no registration forms. We will provide pre-assigned rental finger stick if you request one during the registration.

3.  All courses will have a remote start and finish.

4.  Please consider wearing a mask when you’re not on your course.

You must preregister for this event here before Thursday November 5 at 5:00 PM, so that we know how many maps to print.
