A rogaine is a race where teams hunt for flags placed in the bush.  The teams start together, walk or run to as many flags as they can, and return before a set finishing time.  Passing a flag scores points, and the team that finishes with the most points wins a chocolate bar.

The state championship is a 24-hour rogaine.  If you're not up for that, a 15-hour rogaine will be held simultaneously, with a mandatory 9 hour break overnight.  Details are on the VRA website.

This rogaine is run by the Victorian Rogaining Association, but MUMC will hold a trip meeting a fortnight before to organise teams and transport.  If you fail to attend, we might not be able to find you a place on a team.

MUMC will help run this rogaine.  Pease talk to Rodney if you're free that weekend.
