SUMMARY:NI Night Champs - Portgenone Forest
DESCRIPTION:LVO are hosting Part 2 of a NIOA double whammy on the 13 Novemb
 er.\n\nAfter loosening up on the middle distance courses at NICS Drumnaph\
 , take the short trip (13 miles/24 mins) over to Portglenone Forest for th
 e NIOA Night Champs.\n\nPortglenone Forest is a lovely mixed\, ancient woo
 dland about 1/2 mile from the town centre on road to Ballymena.\n\nTerrain
  and Courses\n\nIf you have never tried night orienteering in a forest bef
 ore\, this is the place to do it. The criss-crossing courses are contained
  within the an area of about 800m wide and 500m deep and surrounded on the
  north by a fence\, east and south by a wall and the west by the River Ban
 n. So if you get lost it won't be for too long because a path or boundary 
 will be nearby to help relocate.\n\nNight courses are all classified as TD
 5 level\, so all participants must be aged M/W16 or over.\n\nThere will be
  three courses\, Long\, Medium and Short. You may choose to run any course
  but to run competitively for the championships please choose the appropri
 ate course. If you choose to run up a course you will be entered for the a
 ge category closest to your own age\, unless you inform the organiser othe
 rwise beforehand.\n\nLong (3.9km\, 22 controls): M18\, M20\, M21\, M35\, M
 40\, M45\, M50\, W21\,\n\nMedium (3.3km\, 19 controls): M16\, M55\, M60\, 
 M65\, M70\, W16\, W18\, W20\, W35\, W40\, W45\, W50\, W55\, W60\,\n\nShort
  (2.6km\, 17 controls): M75+\, W60\, W65\, W70\, W75+\n\nDue to the criss-
 cross nature of the courses\, to avoid confusion\, all three maps will hav
 e a map change (flip over map halfway round).\n\nSafety\n\nAt this time of
  year\, full arm and leg cover and a hat are highly recommended.\n\nWhistl
 e and head torch (with plenty of battery power) are mandatory\, also bring
  a waterproof jacket as it may be made mandatory by the event officials.\n

 cials.\n\nStart information\n\nStarts will be from 17.30 until 18.30 and c
 ourses will close at 20.00.\n\nStart and finish will be next to the car pa
 rk.\n\nCar Parking and Toilets\n\nCar parking - the forest park is situate
