Join us Saturday, September 7, at Hard Labor Creek State Park. The start and finish will be at Group Shelter #4, near the park office.

Early September is a busy time of year for camping at Hard Labor Creek. The camping area does take up a big portion of the main road through this side of the park but there are many trails to take you around them. Please be respectful of the campers and avoid walking through the campsites.

Notes

1. Water will NOT be provided on any course. A camelbak or similar hydration pack is highly recommended, particularly given the warm temperatures. Participants must bring their own compasses, whistle, and water. Additionally, please be respectful of meet and scoring officials by maintaining appropriate social distancing. DO NOT congregate around the scoring tent after you have downloaded.
2. Pre-paid pre-registration is required. (Registration will open for our volunteer meet directors at 7:00pm on Monday, September 7^th, and will open for other volunteer coupon holders at 8:00pm. Registration will open to all others at 9:00pm.) No paper forms or payments will be accepted on-site.
3. Participants will be started promptly at the start time they select when pre-registering. To facilitate social distancing, please come to the start no earlier than 3 minutes before your start time, but be sure to be at the start on time.
4. Runners will have the option to run one or two courses using the same e-stick. If you want to run two courses, you must pre-register for both courses. On the pre-registration form, you will select your start time for your first course. At the event, when you are ready to start you second course, come back to the start to be assigned a start time. You must start your second course before noon.
