    HVO is planning an event at Silas Condict Park on Sunday, Oct 17

    Since that appears to be an open date on the DVOA schedule, HVO would like to propose that the 2021 HVO/DVOA Dual be held at this event.

    Some background...
    It was HVO's turn to host the Dual in 2020;  of course, due to covid that didn't happen.
    We considered suggesting that DVOA host at either Quail Hill (10/31) or Rutgers (11/14), but those dates conflict with WCOC events.
    Although it would alter the pattern of HVO hosting in even years, and DVOA hosting in odd years, since HVO was supposed to host the next Dual (ie, after 2019), it's reasonable for us to host this year's.

    I should point out that the event & date are still tentative, because we have not obtained the permit yet. The organizers, however, are confident that they will get it.

    Whaddaya think?

    Silas Map Adventure is an annual orienteering event co-sponsored by Kinnelon Boy Scout Troop 277 and Hudson Valley Orienteering, in honor of late Kinnelon resident, Boy Scout ASM, and Silas Map Maker, Bjorn Waalberg. 

    Our course setter this year is Jeremy Colgan. Beginner, intermediate and advanced courses will be available. 

    Registration is now open! Please pre-register, as registration on the day is not guaranteed (it will depend on available maps and available start slots).

    The Silas event is still on, but it will not be the Dual, due to non-standard courses.

    DVOA's Quail Hill event on Dec 12 is the designated replacement, but that is still tentative.
