Traditionally, the Socialgaine is one of the less challenging rogaines, often incorporating a mix of urban and bush terrain. The start/finish location for this year's Socialgaine will be in North Wahroonga which means the course will probably include sections of Kuringai Chase NP and surrounding reserves.  The event will start at 9:30am and finish at 3:30pm.  Entry fees are $38 per person (full) or $27 pp concession (full-time student, unemployed, pensioner).  If you are interested in taking part as a member of an ANB team, please contact me by Friday 18 November (preferably sooner) to secure a place and for payment details.

Rogaining involves navigating a course as part of a team (2 - 5 people) using only a map and compass to find controls (worth points) within a set timeframe (6 hours in this case).  Teams compete against other teams in a range of age/gender categories.  So if you want to improve your navigation skills in the safety of numbers and have a competitive streak, why not try rogaining!
