Willoughby 6h Rogaine

The final rogaine of 2020 is here and is nice and local!

Our final rogaine for 2020 will be a cracker of an event, with a strange history. This event was originally set as this year’s Metrogaine to be run in March. It is now being run on the date set for the socialgaine and is replacing our annual Paddy Pallin sponsored 6hr event. Who really cares though, it’s the last rogaine in the year, it is in the middle of Sydney and takes in some surprising country. In contrast to some events which have their hash house on some unnamed area of dirt in the bush, this event’s hash house will be “Club Willoughby”.

UNSWOC will be putting together some teams so please sign up before Nov 1 so we have time to organise and enter. There is a cost associated (likely $30-$45), I will confirm that closer to the time. Nav training may be available subject to trip leader availability so if your keen let is know in the comment and we will keep you posted.

Mandatory Gear:

A small compulsory First Aid kit is required to be carried by each competitor on all rogaines. It consists of:

• compression bandage for snake bites and
• plastic foil emergency blanket.

This is an event that is beginner friendly with a novice category. Check out the link at the top for more information (including gear required etc).

I will update this page with more info as it becomes available.

For the comment: What experience do you have? Are you a rookie? (if so) Do you want to be on a team of all rookies to qualify for that category or do you wish to be on a team with some more experienced folk? How competitive are you?
