ED/CS Notes:

Our event this week is a score event at Frances Slocum which was a regular venue of the Pocono O Club and hasn't been used for Orienteering for several years.  You'll find it on your road map about 10 miles directly North of Wilkes Barre.  Take a Memorial Day Weekend drive to the Poconos and enjoy a run in the woods.

The score event can be especially challenging in that there is a large trail network in the western side of the park which is not on the map.  Some features are also mis-mapped.  For example a stream may be mapped as a stone wall!  Nonetheless it should be fun and you can't get too lost.

From Rt. 309 there are signs directing you to the park.  Follow O signs from the entrance to the park.
