Any new info on the "local" O-event on Sunday (10/16) at Hickory Run?
Do attendees need to preregister?  If so, how?
Course lengths?

I have the course lengths and climb but none of the other details. If there is nothing about preregistration on the web site I doubt if it is necessary.

From the generic training weekend notes:

Start times will be pre-assigned for you.
For this event the start window closes at 12:00 pm instead of the regular 1:00 pm.

Pre-registration is not mandatory but is required in order to assign start times. At least you have to get in touch with Event Director for more details.

All of the campers have pre-registered, but we are aware that many of you come up for Sunday only. If you can tell Fred that you are coming it will help with map printing. We will find an open time for you when you arrive, but we do close starts at noon so please come early.

As far as night-o goes, pre-registration is mandatory. It is also open to the public, but you must contact Fred by Thursday to get a time and a map and start time.
