Join us for the Island Ford Score-O! on Sunday, March 26th, 2017. There will be White, Yellow and Score-O courses available. The start will be at the large grassy field below the park headquarters.
The Score-O will have a 60 minute time limit. All controls are worth 10 points. There is a 5 point per minute overtime penalty.
Island Ford is a small park with a good network of trails; don’t expect a lot of navigation challenges. So, if you are fit and fast, but your navigation is a little shaky, this might be your time to shine.
To make sure we have enough maps and save time on the day, please pre-register. Score-O, White, and Yellow fees are $7 for members, $10 for non-members. E-punch rental is $3 for the day.
The CRNRA requests no parking on the road please. Buses please park in the first parking lot after you enter the park from Roberts Drive. Buses can drop off students at the turnaround circle near the start, below the park office.
Starts are from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Beginner instruction at 10:30 am. All runners must be off the courses by 3:00 pm.
