|
12 weeks
|
Make contact with Event Coordinator and confirm location of event. Get Topo View Raster Map DVD or arrange to purchase paper maps.
|
|
|
Plan boundaries of course to allow appropriate size of course for event duration, taking into account map size for printing (eg A3 @ 1:25 000 for events of 12 hours or less, 2 x A3 @ 1:25 000 for 24 hour event). Get feedback on course location and size from experienced rogainers (through Event Coordinator and ACTRA Committee), especially if you are a relatively inexperienced Course Setter.
|
|
10-12 weeks
|
Liaise with Event Coordinator to decide who will secure permissions for land use and camping (if necessary). Use the Form Letter for Landholders in this document. A committee member will need to sign any forms. Environment ACT forms (for nature parks / ACT forest) can be downloaded from http://www.environment.act.gov.au/bushparksandreserves/recreation/organised_events
|
|
|
Read and understand the Event Risk Management Guidelines prior to setting the course. Pay special attention to Section 2 – Safety in Course Setting.
|
|
|
Talk to land owners and determine if there are any special sites or areas that need to be marked out-of-bounds (e.g. rare or fragile environments/vegetation, stocked or cropped paddocks, historic sites, houses, dangerous terrain etc).
Establish if there are any sites of aboriginal significance in the event area as this may require more detailed liaison. Be prepared to provide a draft version of proposed control sites and allow time (up to 3 weeks before hanging controls) for consultation with Aboriginal Liaison Officers. The exact locations of sites may not be disclosed by authorities (for example burial grounds) with a general area declared off-limits. Some control sites may need to be relocated or abandoned.
|
|
|
Set the course and place marking/flagging tape at proposed control site. Record control description.
Set with another person if possible and always carry a Satellite phone and/or mobile phone and let someone know where you are.
Note mobile phone coverage throughout the course.
|
|
|
While setting, check map accuracy in vicinity of control sites, moving sites if not adequate. Make note of particularly hazardous areas to mention to participants in your Notes and Final Briefing. Note any major map corrections that could affect the fairness of the course – tracks which do not exist or have become unusable, major tracked that can be easily added as correction, areas of dense vegetation that should be avoided (remote images such as NSW lands website or Google maps can be a useful aid)
|
|
|
Allocate numbers to controls, taking into account distribution of points across event area allowing for variable speed of travel due to topography, rough ground, vegetation, tracks etc
|
|
|
Plan water drop locations taking into account natural water on course and reasonable vehicle access for checking and replenishing during the event. Tape water drop sites and get independently vetted.
|
|
|
Drive and document all routes to be used for safety patrols, taking into account road surfaces and available vehicles for safety patrols.
|
|
|
Drive all approaches that will be described to participants, noting distances, intersections, hazards and locations of directional and competitor safety road signs to be used. Compile event directions and provide to Event Coordinator to be included in the Final Instructions. Ensure reasonable vehicle access to HH site, allowing for reasonable variation of weather conditions prior to event, and taking into account event bus transport (if applicable).
|
|
6 weeks
|
Contact Event Coordinator to arrange for independent Course Vetters to check control location and descriptions. Ideally, Vetters should approach a control from a different direction. If the Vetter agrees with control site, they may hang the control flag. If they disagree, a third visit should be made to resolve.
|
|
3 weeks
|
Liaise with Event Coordinator and complete the Event Safety Information Document. Plan safety arrangements with Course Coordinator (safety patrols, water drops, out of bounds areas, location of intention boards).
|
|
|
Write Course Setter Notes & Control Descriptions ensuring that descriptions meet technical standards and that they contain all relevant information (as listed in the Event Risk Management Guidelines). You may like to note sun/moon rise and setting times/tides etc.
Provide to Administrator or Event Coordinator for photocopying.
|
|
|
Obtain control flags, numbers, punches and Navlight punches (if being used) from the Event Coordinator. Record pin punches on a master control card.
Get a lesson on how to hang a control if you are unsure of the correct method, especially if using Navlight.
|
|
1 week
|
Provide final map to Coordinator for printing.
|
|
|
Monitor weather. If any hazards expected (e.g. extreme heat or cold) advise Event Coordinator. Emphasise risks in Course Setter Notes and Final Briefing.
|
|
Morning of event
|
Hang last minute controls (e.g. near roads). Any such controls should have been vetted, just flags not hung yet.
Put out road safety signs eg ‘Runners/Cyclists on Road’.
|
|
Just before start
|
Conduct Final Event Briefing – emphasising event hazards and safety procedures as outlined in the Event Safety Information Document.
|
|
During Event
|
Assist with safety patrols and refilling water drops (only if required).
|
|
Post Event
|
Liaise with Event Coordinator to organise control collection (only if required).
|
|
Additional notes for Setting & Coordinating the Metrogaine
Specific things to consider:
ACTRA has at least 6 lockable metal controls. If using other controls please use old cloth controls in urban bushland. Try and place these controls out of public sight.
Be cautious with question/ answer format. Even with the best intentions, questions can be ambiguous. Multiple choice answers can avoid some of the problems associated with ambiguous questions, writing down long answers and will give people some idea that they are on the right track.
Preferably answers should be 1 letter or 1 digit.
Set controls near safe major road crossings and/or highlight safe road crossing points. Road permits for the event should be obtained.
If adding in fun elements such as mystery controls or bonus points clearly state this in the initial information about the rogaine. Consider rewarding fun elements with prizes rather than points (to avoid issues with those seeking a true competition).
Ensure there is enough room on the control card for people to write the answers to the questions.
Competitors should be asked to bring a permanent pen that will write on contacted control cards.
Some urban sportsgrounds have canteens. Ask about the use of these facilities for caterers.

Setting Event Entry Fees
Entry fees should be set a month before the event (at the latest). All fees should be double-checked with the Treasurer. Fees will need to be set with a rough estimate of participants in mind. Use the event from the previous year as a guide (the Treasurer will have a record or look at the website). As a rough guide it is usually 100 competitors or 150 for the ACT Champs and 200 for the Paddy Pallin event. Note that the further the distance from Canberra the less competitors (usually).
Post-event, all invoices/costs need to be checked by the Event Co-ordinator prior to payment by the Treasurer.
Volunteer Travel
|
|
This includes course setter & vetter travel pre-event, coordinator & volunteer travel on the day of the event and control collection post-event. ACTRA reimburses at $0.30/km.
This is one of the largest unknown costs for an event. If possible, course setters should take an educated guess on how much travel they will need to do to set the event and inform the coordinator prior to event fees being set. Course setters should also inform the Co-ordinator if topographic maps were purchased for course setting.
The Coordinator should work on at least two volunteer cars needed on the day of the event and at least one post-event for control collection. Efforts should be made to carpool if possible.
|
Portaloos
|
Kennards Hire
ACTQ Septic
|
Coordinators should obtain quotes for Portaloos prior to setting event fees.
Some (Kennards) require prepayment so obtain a cheque from Treasurer or pay and get reimbursed later. For others companies, obtain an invoice and provide to Treasurer for payment.
|
Catering
|
Aranda Scouts
Jerangle P&C
DEWR Hartley Team
Lyneham Primary P&C
|
Coordinators should negotiate catering fees per competitor prior to setting event fees.
Amount paid will be based on final numbers given to caterers 1-2 days prior to the event + number of volunteers (i.e. not necessarily the number of people who actually turn up on the day!).
Obtain invoice and provide to Treasurer for payment.
|
Map Printing & photocopying
Royalty Fees
|
Bytes’n’Colours
Trendsetting
|
Coordinators/Admin should obtain quotes for maps prior to setting event fees (unless using Bytes’n’Colours which is usually $1 per competitor).
Please use own sources for photocopying if possible. If this won’t be possible, take an educated guess and add to the total. The Paddy Pallin event requires hard copy fliers to be distributed to Paddy Pallin stores.
If we use Orienteering ACT maps, they usually incur a $1 per competitor royalty fee to be paid to OACT.
|
Trophies
|
|
ACT Champs and Paddy Pallin will incur trophy engraving costs. Add $150 (total) for each of these events. The Nightgaine has a single trophy (add $20).
|
Miscellaneous Costs
|
|
Toilet paper, lollies/fruit for water drops, postage etc. This will depend on the size of the event. Factor in $20 for all events, $100 for the ACT Champs.
|
Equipment hire (for additional equipment)
| |
Coordinators should obtain quotes prior to setting event fees (mainly for ACT Champs).
They usually require prepayment so obtain a cheque from Treasurer or pay and get reimbursed later. For others companies, obtain an invoice and provide to Treasurer for payment.
|
Bus
|
|
ACTRA always runs a bus to the ACT Champs (at a loss). Determine the extent of the loss ACTRA is prepared to accept by talking with the Treasurer and set the bus fee accordingly. Prepayment is usually required so obtain invoice and provide to Treasurer for payment.
|

|
Namadgi National Park
Conservation & Land Management, Environment ACT
NSW State Forest
