Bayfront Park

Menlo Park
Sunday, May 7, 2000

The Peninsula/South Bay edition of National Orienteering Day will be held at Bayfront Park in Menlo Park. Bayfront Park is a very scenic waterfront setting, with gentle, rolling hills and mostly open terrain. This event is targeted at newcomers to orienteering, and the terrain is perfect for White and Yellow courses.

Three courses will be offered:

• White, 2-3 km long; completely on trails, with very easy navigation
• Yellow, 3-4 km; mostly on trails, with relatively easy navigation
• Memory Score-O, 4-7 km; find as many controls as possible, relying on your memory, as the only map you get to see will stay at the start triangle

Instructional beginner's clinics will be offered continuously during the event. Registration will open at 9:30 am, with starts offered from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm.

Special discounted rates will be in effect: $6 per group, $5 for an individual.

Directions

From the East Bay, cross the Dumbarton Bridge. Go to the fifth traffic light and turn right into the park.
