Open Event at Raven Rock State Park – Dec 1, 2019

Filed under: Uncategorized by Vladimir Stemkovski on November 16th, 2019

We will have an OPEN event at Raven Rock State Park on Sunday December 1, 2019.
Everyone is welcome, and we will have a beginners class at 12:30.

The event starts at noon and everybody must finish by 3 PM. We will have all regular courses from beginner to advanced, White through Red.
White 1.9km 8 controls
Yellow 2.1km 10 controls
Orange 3.2km 11 controls
Brown 3.4km 8 controls
Green 4.7km 10 controls
Red 6.0km 13 controls

Don’t forget to register and pay here (even, if you are a club member). Registrations received after noon Friday (28 Nov) cannot be guaranteed a map.

The park is a lovely park, but there are some steep slopes and quite a bit of mountain laurel to slow you down off trail. There are also a couple of new un-mapped trails (in the south east part of the map).

As always, help with control pick-up would be greatly appreciated.

Directions

Raven Rock is near Lillington, about 40 miles S of Raleigh. We will be using the part of Raven Rock that is South of the Cape Fear River. If you are using a GPS to get to the park, use the address: 3009 Raven Rock Road, Lillington, NC, 27546 or use GPS coordinates: 35.459259, -78.912911.

  1. The UPHS NJROTC Orienteering Club is planning on attending this meet. Are each of the cadets/students supposed to register and pay or is there a way for me to input the team (names & courses) and pay from our group funds?

    Thank you.
