POCAR 08 UPDATE

Special thanks to MyTopo.com for GREAT service and their support towards our organization. For all your topo needs please check them out first!

IMPORTANT NEWS!

Please note that we have 47-48 teams registered and there are only ~30 campsites available at Mason Ridge and Oak Ridge Campgrounds in Morgan-Monroe State Forest (Scout Ridge is reserved for volunteers). This should be enough campsites if teams share campsites whenever possible. If you cannot find a spot to camp there is also primitive camping on Low Gap Road in Morgan-Monroe and sites nearby at Yellowwood State Forest. And again, parking is limited so carpool as much as possible, and if you camp please reserve your campsite for the duration of the race and leave your car there! We are working out a shuttle system in case we run out of parking spaces. If you cannot find a place to park when you show up please check in with volunteers at Scout Ridge and we will instruct you where to park.

Membership List UPDATE

Sorry But POCAR 2008 Registration Is Now Closed!

POCAR, or Purdue Outing Club Adventure Race, is a 48 hour orienteering race held over Martin Luther King weekend in Southern Indiana. This year’s race will be held in Morgan-Monroe State Forest. The race will begin at 12:00 p.m. Saturday, Jan 19, 2008 at or near Scout Ridge, and end at 12:00 p.m. Monday, Jan 21, 2008. There will be ~2-3 fire/water checkpoints, as well as several mystery events. Teams will be given UTM coordinates for checkpoints, and must be able to plot their own points! So make sure that there are at least 1 or 2 people on your team that can do this – no assistance will be provided on the day of the race! Volunteers will be constantly patrolling roads during the race in case a team is lost, hurt, or decides to drop out of the race.
