It looked like it was going to be a nasty day for orienteering; it had rained most of the night and off-and-on into the morning, until about 11:15. Even though it was fairly nice after that, many people decided earlier in the day that they didn't want to orienteer in the rain and didn't come out. Otherwise, everything went fairly well. There was one minor temporary glitch in the yellow course that was corrected - it affected only one person. Everyone else commented positively on the courses. It was Ray Wygonik's meet directing debut; and other than the low turnout, it was definitely a success.
Thanks to Loretta Opila and Dave Torick for handling registration. Thanks to Alexis Rzewski for helping with start/finish. And thanks to Dave Torick, Alexis Rzewski and a friend of Ray's for helping to pick up the controls.
The next meet will be at Stackhouse Park on August 29.
