Venue change for Ultra O-gaine
We have been hard at work to bring you another great Ultra O-gaine this year. Although there are always “hiccups” involved with planning these types of events, they are usually transparent to the participants. We’ve hit a “hiccup” that we feel won’t be resolved within a time-frame needed to give us and particpants time to plan appropriately. We have been told that due to the increased number of requests to use the privately owned Pine Log area for endurance events such as UOG, the GA DNR is currently undergoing a review of their permitting process. Unfortunately, the DNR cannot approve any event permits until this review is complete. With the June 8th event date fast approaching, we have decided to seek an alternate location for UOG 2007. Although we are disappointed that we won’t be back at Pine Log this year, we are excited to announce that we have obtained approval to hold UOG 2007 in Prentice Cooper State Forest near Chattanooga, TN. Prentice Cooper offers an additional 10,000 acres vs Pine Log, specatular views high above the TN River, much larger areas for parking and Hash House, and primitive camping for folks that want to get some sleep after the event.
We’re also going to extend pre-registration an extra week for anyone that wants to jump in due to the new location. You’ll save $10 per person if you register before April 30th.
As always, feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
