The town of Beaver was bustling with activity at the same time as this orienteering event.  Just after the mass start at 2 pm, participants might have been running past a reenactment at Fort McIntosh when the soldiers were shooting the cannon!  And those who ventured toward the center of town were probably greeted with many costumed children finishing with Halloween activities at the park.  Some of the more unique control points this year included an old spring house, a cannon, an old fashioned water fountain that accommodates horses and dogs as well as people, and a statue of a pizza chef!  Each of the 30 controls were worth 5 points.

Shortly after 3 pm, results were announced and the top 3 places were awarded prize packs put together by the Beaver Area Memorial Library.  Each prize pack included an orienteering book as well as other outdoor related items.  Special thanks to the Beaver Area Memorial Library and Deborah, the children's librarian, for use of the space, copying of the maps and clues, refreshments, and prizes.  Thanks also to the Beaver Historical Museum, Mario's Pizza, Sts. Peter and Paul Church, Park Presbyterian Church, and each of the Beaver residents who allowed me to place control flags on their property.  And Thanks also to the Zang family for doing control pickup.
