Event Director: Diane Reider
Course Setter: Erik Eddy and see choices to Volunteer to help at this event 🙏
ED/CS Notes:
Parking will be at Antietam Lake with start at the Nature Center. There is about a 350 meter uphill walk to the start.
The gravel lot off of Antietam Road has limited parking. If the lot is full, additional parking is available in the grass on the west side of Hill Road. Please be mindful that if we have had wet conditions, the grass parking area could be slippery.
Due to early sunset, we will be picking up controls at 2:30pm. Please plan your time.
Volunteers to run the event would be appreciated. I need help for the following Positions:
- Early Start
- Late Start
- Early Epunch
- Control Pick-up
Please contact Diane Reider if you can fill any of these positions at (610) 777-5881 or dianereider[at]hotmail[dot]com. Alternatively, use Volunteers signup link from above.Trails: I added several of the trails that are either more distinct or are most likely to be seen on a course. The fall leaves hide some of the trails. Many of the mountain bike trails SW of the farm are indistinct and have not been added or are marked indistinct. I am not a professional mapper but in my estimation this adds a tremendous amount of value to these courses.
*White and Yellow should not be confused by any previously unmarked trails.
*Shared 1st control: W&Y, Blue&Green, Red&Brown
*Blue has 2 repeat controls 4/15 and 11/14
General Notes: Brown, Green, and Red explore the woods near Antietam Lake, Rotary Park and the Farm while staying away from Skyline Drive. For those who want a challenge, Blue will test your endurance and technical skills with some controls down the North side of Skyline Drive. Be sure to know the symbol for boulder on the clue sheet!
I would love to hear your opinions once you are done running your course!
