Big Blue O Fest 2008
September 12, 13, and 14

This meet is an attempt to have others from the Midwest or otherwise come to Chicago (home of the blues) for a weekend of excellent orienteering meets. Everyone is invited for a day or all 3 events.

This year’s event is considered a “B” meet, which means that all the events will be considered for a prize at the end of the meets. Electronic punching will also be used on the advanced courses.

Anyone participating in all three days (either team or individual) will receive a Blue Music CD arranged by meet director Charlie S.

The weekend starts off with two sprint courses at Busse Woods South in Elk Grove Village (4-6pm Friday). Saturday's meet will be a middle distance event plus sprint for advanced orienteerers, plus regular orange, yellow and white courses. Sunday's meet will be back at Country Lane Woods, using our A-meet map from last fall. Advanced courses will be Long events (50% longer than normal) while white, yellow, and orange courses will be offered for beginners-intermediates.

Details:
Friday - 4-6pm - Sprints at Busse Woods.
Saturday - 10am-noon - Middle Distance and Sprint at Deer Grove
Sunday - 10am-noon - Long Event at Country Lane Woods
