    DVOA will be hosting a local event at Tyler State Park on August 19, 2012.  The park can be described as one large sprint venue. For that reason the courses are on the long side and will feature route choice and map reading challenges.

    Course information:

    White       2.8km  17 controls
    Yellow      2.5km   9 controls
    Orange    4.9 km  16 controls
    Brown      3.9km   13 controls
    Green       5.7km   20 controls
    Red          8.2km    26 controls
    Blue        11.4km   31 controls

    That start area will be at the Hickory Nut Picnic Grove with nearby "comfort stations" that have running water.

    A special running of the blue course will be the Tyler Goat Sprint. This will be a mass start at high noon. During the course there will be a 12 control mini-sprint where one control can be dropped.

    I sent a nice press release to Channel 6 about the Tyler State Park event, featuring the Goat.  Let's see if something comes of it!
