On Sunday, December 19, BOK will host its 8th annual December Score-O, this time in Birkhead Mountains Wilderness. A “Score-O” involves a course with no predetermined route, in which competitors decide which controls they want to visit, and in which order. This event will have 2-, and 4-hour options. It is open to any orienteer or adventure racer who has successfully completed the equivalent of an advanced (orange, brown, green, red, or blue) orienteering course. You must preregister for this event here before Friday, December 17 at 5:00 PM.

This is a mass-start event, with both the 2-hour and 4-hour races beginning at 10:00 AM from the Gray Owl section of the forest. Those who prefer to start individually rather than with the group may select an early or late start time when they register. Five early and five late individual slots will be offered, and if/when they fill up, they will not be available when you register. Individuals who are unvaccinated against Covid-19 are encouraged to start individually. All runners will have a full two or four hours to complete their course, regardless of when they start. The following details, as well as any last-minute addenda will be emailed to registrants shortly before the event.

Schedule:
9:00 AM Maps available for pickup
9:45 — 10:00 AM Individual starts for those who prefer
10:00 AM Mass start (masked with 2m interpersonal separation)
10:00 — 10:15 AM Individual starts for those who prefer
