The Winter Solstice Charity Challenge
Time: Wed. Dec 21, 2016 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Start Location: Lincoln Fields Parking Lot, SE corner near the intersection of Carling Ave and the west SJAM ramps
Entry: A non-perishable donation for the Ottawa Food Bank
Details:
Check in 6:00-6:30..sign in on main list and challenge lists, drop off donation, sign waivers, borrow SI (if needed)
First start: 6:30 (or a bit earlier)
Procedure
Randomly pIck one course do at a time, walk the short distance to the start, and after finishing drop off your map and go out again.
At 8 pm feel free to take any maps you may want.
We are using SI so bring your dibblers...I'll have extra SI's available for use if you don't have one.
Four Courses: 3 classic, 1 score-o
The 3 classic courses are ~2.5 km in length by the line...one is very straightforward.
The score option takes two forms a little different than our usual format
1. A 20 min score-o...as many controls as you want but only the ones done under 20 min count...no penalties as long as you're back by 8pm....or
2. A score-o with 19 controls...no penalties as long as your back by 8pm...then I'll start to worry!
Let me know which of these you'll do at the start.
Conditions
Expect snowy trail and field conditions with some (but minimal) pavement. For those that don't know the area ....there are stairs, sidewalks, bridges...enough said :)
As such remember proper foot ware... and as it is a night-O, you might want some form of lighting unless you want to try just ambient light.
All Courses close @ 8 pm
You no longer need to indicate your intent on participating. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Hope to see you there
