Orienteering Meet
It was a wet day, raining lightly in the morning before the start and
sprinkling on and off during the event. The temperature was
reasonable; but everyone was guaranteed to get wet. The turnout
was good for such bad weather and the fact that a number of the
regulars had conflicts of various kinds and could not make it. We
had 36 starts with a total attendance of 64.
Jim Wolfe designed the courses. The only course to cause problems
was the Novice (Yellow) one. It was known ahead of time that two
of the controls would be difficult for a novice so course notes were
provided to explain how to find these controls. The people who
had problems were the ones who did not read the notes. We had one
unfortunate occurrence as someone vandalized one control and took the
control box. This caused 3 groups on the beginner course to
initially appear to DNF before the control box was replaced; however,
the groups are credited with visiting their 9th control in the results
below. Everyone on the longer courses seemed to like
the courses.
Thanks to Christy Freeman, Yaki Barak, Laurie Opila, and Alexis Rzewski
for running registration. Thanks to Sherry Shank, Eric
Steinbring, and Andy Strat for managing start/finish.
Thanks to Alexis for doing some instruction. And thanks to
Gordon Huang, Andy Strat, Alexis Rzewski, and Ryan Knecht for doing
control pickup.
