Claro Summer Evening Series - Race 6 - Hookstone Woods
2025-07-15
Pre-entry and EOD
The final event in our Summer Series is a SnookO!
Small events with a big heart.
Claro Orienteers invite you to the last of our summer evening events, a Snook-O at Hookstone Woods in Harrogate based at the 14th Harrogate Scout hut.
To celebrate the end of our Summer Series please join us for a picnic after the event. Bring something to share, or do your own thing! Hopefully outside if the weather is fine, or inside the Scout Hut if the weather disappoints us.
'Snook O', is based on the game of Snooker - your map has controls that are either a 'Red' or a 'Colour'. Just like you would do in the game of snooker - 'pot/visit' a Red control to get 1 point, then visit any of the colour controls to get those points - i.e. Pink will get you 6 points.
You have 45 minutes to build up as many points as you can in the time limit. Each control will have an SI timing box and orange/white kite on it and you will see your score instantly when you download! Full guidance will be given!
A standard Short Beginners course will be available for those who prefer.
Pre entry preferred by Sunday 13 July. Entry on the day will be available subject to map availability.
Registration opens at 17:45 with start times from 18:00 to 19:00.
Courses close at 19:30.
Please choose an earlier start time if you think you may not finish before 19:30.
