Register for Early Bird Saturday

Indian Springs State Park, Middle Distance Orienteering Meet

Join us this Saturday and Sunday at Indian Springs State Park near Jackson GA. 25th and 26th April, 2015

The Saturday "Early Bird" event will be for advanced courses only and will start at 2PM. Pre-registration is required since there will only be a start crew.

The Sunday event is a standard GAOC meet and will use the same advanced courses. Results will be posted on line ASAP to build the competition. Pre-registration is greatly appreciated. Meet at Picnic shelter #1.

This new map joins the Dauset Trails map, used last weekend, but the terrain is markedly different; more and larger boulders, deep reentrants and relatively open forest. It will be a 1:7500 scale map with 3 meter contours.
