Color Guard (Male) 7. Color Guard (Female)7. Ranger Swim- Described Below8. Combat Inner Tube Relay10. Tug Of War1. Orienteering: (Separate Male & Female Categories)Team Relays – 60 minute time limit & staggered startObjective: Given a street map of the area around Deer Park H.S., successfully orienteer to various locations and punch your card to verify your finding of the point. Remember this will be a sprint length course meaning that you must successfully navigate to all points on your map in numerical order to be qualified for winning the relay.Materials: Compass (optional) & Watch. Pagers & cell phones are prohibited.Basic Information: A School may enter as many teams as desired; The Team may consist of 2-3 members (note 2 member teams would make someone run two courses). The team members must SUCCESSFULLY complete each of the 3 sprint courses designed for the relay event in order to be eligible for winning a trophy. The team will be either male or female; if the need should arise for a coed team, it will be counted as a Male Competitive Team. There will be three courses (Advance, Beginner, and Intermediate). You will be looking for control markers (A control marker is a triangular shaped bag with square sides, consisting of two more right triangle fields, one being orange, and the other being white). Each of the control markers will have a different control number which is corresponding to the clue sheet based on your course level. After an initial team briefing, the teams will be given their clue sheets and lined up in order of their course. Note when pre-arranging who will be the first to go out it is mandatory that the Advanced is your first runner out. Each member will be given a punch card with 14 numbered boxes on them. You will punch the boxes that correspond with a specific number on your clue sheet. For example, when you reach a control and the number (924) is attached and it is your first point both on the clue sheet and on the map punch it in the appropriate box (In this case it would go in box 1) on the punch card so that way you are able to receive credit for successfully navigating to the control marker. In regards to the time limit and qualification for winning the event, you are given a 60 minute time limit and required to send the Advanced out first. If the Advanced runner does not make it back within 25 minutes then we will start your second runner however note that you will receive a 5 minute penalty if we must do this. If the second runner is not back within 40 minutes (total time) then we will send your third and final runner and another 5 minute penalty will be applied. Please note that this event does have a 60 minute time limit and if you exceed the total amount of time your team is automatically disqualified from this event. Annex B (con’t)Strategy: This event is a Relay meaning each runner must participate in the event for the team to be eligible. We recommend you select the fastest and more experienced runners to compete on the advanced course in order to have the best chance at winning. 2. Leaders Reaction Course Five-person team (5) and two team members must be female cadets. ?Leadership Reaction Course is an outdoor adventure-based learning facility. Five structured "leadership challenges" encourages participants to think, react, work as a team and solve problems in a determined period of time.
