CNYO
CNYO's Annual Summer Rogaine Score Format. —teams of two to five people have a fixed time (6, 12, or 24 hours in this event) to visit as many checkpoints as possible, walking, running or resting as they see fit (solo entries will be allowed in the 6-hour event this year, but not in the longer 12 or 24 hour competitions). The checkpoints (controls) are spread over a large area, and are pre-marked on a map issued shortly before the start of the event. Point values for visiting each control vary (and are specified in advance) depending on such factors as the distance from the start/finish area, elevation, navigational complexity, and the whims of the course setter. The members of the team must stay together throughout the event, for reasons of safety. The base camp is located in a primitive camping area in Charles E Baker State Forest, near Brookfield, NY GPS Coordinates are N 42.764506 W -75.386701. Free overnight camping is available Friday and Saturday nights. Bring tents, sleeping bags, etc. It will be on a small dirt loop road going to the old Fire Tower site (the fire tower has been gone for a few decades now), which will allow for participants to pull off to the side to set up tents for camping if they wish. There will be a couple of portable toilets, and we will have available a moderate supply of drinking water for the use of people that are camping there, or who want to be filling water bottles, etc. just before going out on the course. We will keep track of placings in all of the the usual IRF rogaine categories (Men, Women, Mixed, in each of the various age subcategories of Junior (all under 23), Open, Veterans (all over 40), Super Veterans (all over 55), Ultra Veterans (all over 65)), as well as the overall placing, in the printed results of the event. SOLO orienteers (6 Hour Only) please indicate by selecting Team Solo. We may possibly provide some sort of physical award for some of the placements in at least some of these categories! Please mention your teams class in the comments of the online registration form. Entries received by June 1 will cost $50 per person. After June 2 up through June 18, there is a $5/person late fee. Payment by check may be made to Central New York Orienteering and must be postmarked by the indicated registration deadlines. Registration from June 19 on, or day of event registration on site, will incur an additional $10 fee, and will need to be paid by cash or check. Minors will need a liability waiver signed by a legal guardian. On-site registration by minors will require the presence of a guardian to sign the waiver if the form has not been filled out in advance. All participants will be required to sign a liability release waiver. More information is on the club Rogaine event page. We hope to see you in the woods!
