2026 Stars Kick Off and Starry Night
The event on 14 November 2026 features two orienteering races held on the same day, with O-CUP points awarded separately for each race. The two races are presented as a daytime Kick-Start and a night-time Starry Night, forming the start of the 2026-2027 O-CUP season.
Kick-Start is held at Breithaupt Park with registration near the parking lot by the playground and splash pad off Union Street. Starry Night takes place in Bechtel Woods with registration around the back of the park near the baseball diamond. Locations are specified for each race and registration will be on site at those areas.
Registration opens 14 October, with early bird fees ending 31 October at 11:59pm and registration closing 12 November at 11:59pm. Fees are listed by category: adult for two races $40 before 31 October and $45 after, adult for one race $30 before 31 October and $35 after, and junior/student $15. Race-day registration is limited to 10 entrants.
All participants must complete a waiver on race day; paper copies will be available at the registration desk. Both races follow O-CUP handicap rules, allowing participants to skip checkpoints equal to their handicap point total. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
