Rockwood Spring Score-O
May 15th 2022 12:00pm
Organizer: Steve Heron (Organizer)
Map: Rockwood Park
The event will proceed, rain or shine (and it looks like rain)! We're not gonna melt!
A Score-O is an event where participants "choose their own" adventure and find as many controls as they can in a given time. Controls can be collected in any order. Harder controls may be worth more points, but going over the time limit will cost you!
There will be only a single course. Many controls will be placed in easy-to-find locations throughout the main public area of the park. Several harder controls will be hidden off-trail for the more adventurous participants!
COURSE
- Type: Score-O (random order)

A Call to Volunteers!
Orienteering New Brunswick (ONB) is a run by volunteers who are passionate about the sport and volunteer their time to create a fun experience for everyone. Without volunteers, we would have no orienteering events in New Brunswick? The fees collected at each event cover the costs for permits, insurance, map printing, supplies, and equipment used at the event. They don’t cover planning, organizing, or running the event. It is only through the generous volunteer effort of club members by which these events can happen!
How can you help? We need help with:
- registration
- picking up controls afterwards
- promotion of events
