It was a bright sunny day, starting out rather cool (40's) and ending in the 60's. The turnout was about average for events in the eastern half of our area, 25 starts, 55 participants. I had hoped that the weather would bring more participation.
Al Sheaffer was meet director. He designed four interesting courses, although the yellow course seemed to be more challenging than usual based on the finishing times. Everyone seemed to have a good time; there was a very low number of DSQs and DNFs. It was particularly good that we had none of those on the white course. Al designed the courses so that white and yellow were in a different part of the map than the orange and red courses; this gave us an advantage when picking up the controls
Thanks to Sherry Shank for handling registration. Thanks to Joe Logan and Karin Villwock for handling start/finish. And thanks to Joe Logan, Eric Steinbring's group, and Anders, Carl and Karin Villwock for helping to pick up the controls.
The next event will be on May 20 at Bushy Run Battlefield. This
will be our first event at Bushy Run and our first event devoted to sprint
courses.
