Good evening all, the Spring WICEN season is fast approaching with the first event occurring on the first weekend in September, that being the Brookvale Horse Endurance Ride which is held out in the forests near Uriarra. At this stage we have agreed to support the Sunday (3rd September), but if there is sufficient interest from WICEN personnel, we would also look to support a small part of the event on the Saturday as well (2nd September).
This is an enjoyable slow paced event and will use 2m portable setups in a variety of forest locations in and around Uriarra plus the HQ setup at Brookvale. Some of the checkpoints would benefit from having 4WD capability to access them, but some will be 2WD accessible. This is an easy slow paced event that allows newcomers to get an introduction to this type of communications activity – simply reporting the numbers of horses that go past and assisting with some admin traffic.
Could I ask for those able to support this event to let us know via the WICEN organising email address (wicen@crarc.ampr.org) of your availability, specifying which (or both) of the days you would like to assist on and also if you have a 4WD vehicle. There is the possibility of camping being available at the ride base on the Saturday night, so please also advise if you would be interested in taking advantage of this (availability of this to be confirmed).
