General registration information
Membership
For insurance purposes all participants must be a member of a recognized provincial orienteering association (or national federation) to take part in Barebones. You can purchase an Alberta Orienteering membership online at www.orienteeringAlberta.ca. There are two membership levels: Club & Full. Club members may only compete in the Sport & Novice categories at Barebones. Full members may compete in any category.
Electronic Punching
All events except the Urban-O use electronic timing. There is a small charge of $2/event to rent SportIdent cards if you don’t have your own.
NOTE: Calgary JDP members can use the SI cards they use on Wednesday evenings - NO SI card rental required.
Shadowing
For parents who wish to shadow their children, please note that shadowing is free. Pay race entry fees only if you will be racing yourself.
Complainer’s Fee
A complainer’s fee of $25 is payable in advance by anyone who thinks they might be whining about the courses, the map, the terrain, the weather, or anything else that will make the organizers wish they'd never bothered organizing this event. Constructive commentary, as usual, is free and welcome.
