Summer Solstice Event 2 - Mooney's Bay Summer Solstice Series
June 10th 2025 6:00pm - 8:00pm
Our second Summer Solstice event on Tuesday, June 10 will be on a map with three different parks:
- Vincent Massey, which has a big picnic area with shelters and washrooms, some wooded areas, a bike path along the river, and two busy parking lots
- Hog’s Back, with fields, woods, cliffs and small trails, and the abandoned Charles Tupper Building
- Mooney’s Bay, with a beach, grassy picnic area, stadium, and a very big hill
This is a standard 28-control, 60-minute Score-O event. You have one hour to find as many controls as you can.
