Event: Annual "Paddle O" Special Event! PLEASE NOTE BOAT RENTAL INFO BELOW!
Date: Saturday, 15 August 2015

Location: Earth Discovery Center (the boat ramp off the EDC parking lot - follow signs for the EDC from either the 56th St. or 71st St. entrances to the park. Please note that standard park entry fees will apply.)

Overflow Parking: If you find the EDC lot to be full, park in the Peace Learning Center lot (just north of the EDC on DeLong Road).

Time Schedule: (Indianapolis is on Eastern Daylight Saving Time)
1:00pm -- Registration opens
2:00pm -- Start for the 4 hour paddling event
2:00 – 4:00 pm -- The 2 hour paddling event participants and 2 hour foot event participants can start anytime between 2:00 and 4:00 pm
6:00pm -- Cutoff for all events

Courses: There are three course options: 4 hour paddling event, 2 hour paddling event, OR a 2 hour foot-only event.

Skill Levels: All skill levels are welcome, but this event is not quite as well suited for true first-timers to orienteering. Please come out and join us if you'd like, but there won't be a traditional "white" course designed specifically for first-timers.

Registration Fees: There will be on-site event-day registration, as usual. Fees for this event are $10/individual (or team, if you are planning on putting more than one person in a boat). As always, extra maps are available at $2/map. Also note that there is a gate fee for the park, so carpool if you'd like to save some money!

Boat Rentals: If you would like to rent a boat from ICO, you MUST contact us by Friday 8/14 at info@indyo.org to let us know! Boat rentals are $5/boat through the club. Boats are plastic and can seat up to three people on a built-in middle seat. You are certainly welcome to bring your own boat as well (you will pay an extra $3 car-top boat launch fee along with your gate fee when you enter the park).
