Heritage Reservation
5 May 2019
Orienteering Meet

The temperature wasn't bad (mid-50's); but it rained all day.  The weather in combination with the events in Pittsburgh and perhaps other things made Heritage one of our lowest attended events ever.  We had only 18 starts from 24 participants.  Everyone got wet but seemed to have a good time.  We had only one glitch as one of the control boxes misbehaved.  But it was replaced and the results were adjusted to reflect that several people had visited that  control before it was replaced.

Kevin Fisher set five courses over the fairly flat and frequently sloppy terrain of Heritage Reservation.  All who went out on them seemed to enjoy them.  We had two "ringers" from Sweden who showed everyone how it is done on the Advanced Long course.

Thanks to Sherry Shank, Hunter Bash, Laurie Opila, and Ryan Knecht for handling registration.  Thanks to Lee Bash and Kevin Fisher for helping with start finish.  Thanks to Kevin Fisher for helping with instruction.  And thanks to Dave Battista, Ryan Knecht, Lee Bash and Kevin Fisher for doing control pick-up.

Our next event is the Training Day at Deer Lakes Park on May 19.
