Description

Up to no good in the woods: an HP inspired fitness gathering Ready your wands...All Hallow's Eve is a distant memory, yet magic is all around us “the searing light of morning asks unwelcome questions, fragile hopes soon blistered by daylight.” Join us at Umstead State Park as we hike the mystical forbidden forest and meet resident creatures, (mainly native wildlife), during a semi-guided tour of Umstead's untamed flora and fauna. This is a 6-mile loop with medium threat and intermediate hiking difficulty. Celebrate the season and your love of Harry Potter with an HP-inspired t-shirt, attire, or a functional costume. Compete for prizes as we search for the ingredients of spells while exploring the trail, look for traces, rescue Foundables, and defeat the Dark Forces that lurk in the woods. We will meet at the entrance of the trail at 10:15 AM. The hike will begin at 10:30 AM. Tread carefully, as we follow the gravel path and enter into the winding abyss of the forbidden forest. HP Wizards Unite players are welcome to join us as they look for traces, rescue Foundables, and defeat the Dark Forces that lurk in the woods. **Please keep in mind that the path is uneven and hilly with protruding roots and branches along the path. ***Comfortable hiking shoes and plenty of water are recommended! ***Fitness Waivers required for new wizards and witches joining for the first time. ***Children are welcome to attend with parental consent and a signed waiver. ***Please complete the Fitness Waiver prior to the event Schedule · Saturday, November 28, 202`1 10:15 AM : Meet at Platform 9 3/4 (entrance of the trail near the restrooms) 10:30 AM: Enter the Forbidden Forest11:00 AM: Dispel calories and commune with magical creatures11:30 AM: Traverse the full path or return to platform 9 3/4 (at the halfway point)12:30 PM: Mischief managed!
