Orienteering and MTB

Hey WARTS,
On the 25th of May we are having an orienteering event out at smugglers bay. That starts at 10am. I was approached by the new caretaker of Glenbervie MTB tracks who said thankyou for the work we have done, and that he is going to have a clean up day on the 25th of may. I was thinking after orienteering we could go to Gelnbervie forest to do some more track maintenance on Flipper and then have a ride.

Let me know via text if you are keen to help.

North island secondary school adventure racing champs

Who is keen to go to this?

Hi Folks

Entries are now open for our new Adventure Race, a 12 hour and 6 hour Adventure Race.

The event will take place on Saturday 13th September 2014 and will incorporate the North Island Secondary School Championships.

The event will be based from Tucks Bay, near Coromandel Township and with the exception of the Schools Championships, teams will not require a support crew.

The events include mountain biking, trekking, rifle shooting, mine exploration and navigation and all team members will require a wet suit.

The 12 hour event will have  kayaking and non-kayaking options and is open to teams of 4 or 2 (any mix).

The 6 hour event is non- kayaking and will be open to teams of 2, 3 or 4.

The School Championships is open to teams of 4 (any mix) and will include kayaking.

The theme for the event can be found on the website and it is hoped that it  will raise awareness to the plight of Coromandels Archey's Frog.

As usual we have an early bird option for teams and more information and online entry can be found on our website at www.arcevents.co.nz
