<p>This week's WET takes place at Queen's Park in New Westminster. There are two courses available, the shorter one being 2.2 km, and the longer 4.2 km.

<p>Two courses will be offered, one of which is Easier/Shorter depending on terrain and suitable for beginners/families. The other of which is Longer/Harder depending on terrain.</p>
<p><strong>Safety Precautions</strong>:</p>
<p>It will be dark out, so make sure you don't forget your headlamp! The park contains a few parking lots and roads, make sure you look both ways before crossing. There may also be soccer/baseball games playing while we're there, please don't run through them.</p>
