We want to try and re-use as much of the signs and tape as possible. Please be careful as you remove the arrows so as not to damage them. Do not discard staples on the course, bring them to the bin at the finish line. Collect all the tent pegs holding down tape. All the cable ties are releasable and reusable, please do not cut. You will be given a large nail clipper which is a useful tool for sign removal & collection.
