Night-O & Season-ending Party | Allardale Park | Medina, Ohio | Saturday, November 11th

Overview

This night event will be in the Score-O style.  In this type of event, controls will have different point values according to how challenging they are to find.  Controls can be visited in any order, with the objective of getting the most points possible while finishing by an established deadline.

Control placements will be considerate for all ages and skill levels: nature-lovers, hikers, families, scouts, and experienced orienteers. All are welcome.

Bring a good headlamp or flashlight, and don’t forget the spare batteries – and a spare light source would be a good idea, too!
