Tree Hugger Invitational Fun Navigation Race Nov 17
Our final club event of 2007 is coming up on Saturday Nov. 17. For those of you with full club memberships, this event is *free* – so it’s a bargain AND lots of fun!
The 4th Tree Hugger Invitational fun navigation race will start around 2 p.m. (schedule to be finalized) followed by awards. This race is part of a larger event, AR Wrap-up 2007 – a celebration of adventure
racing – so the prizes are usually pretty good!
Do the nav race solo or in a team of two. You can enter as a Runner or a Hiker. Consider racing with your kids! It will be a 90-minute event where you visit as many flags as you can, answering questions on a clue sheet as you go. This is not your usual orienteering race! You’ll probably need to remember some basic geography and arithmetic – and be prepared to observe things in the environment around you.
Mandatory gear: indelible pen, compass, whistle, watch, weather- appropriate clothing and (optionally) water.
Race entry is $15, half-price for kids aged 13-18, and free for kids aged 12 and under. Also free for full Caledon Navigators members, of course!
Race registration is being handled through Evite, as this is an semi- invitational event. Please e-mail me at barbrich@ca.inter.net if you would like to be added to the invitation.
