Yellow Creek State Park (South Side)
Orienteering Meet
23 May 2021
It was a hot day for late May, temperature in the low 80's.
Although it threatened rain, we didn't get any until we were
picking up controls. We had a good turnout, 81 participants with
33 starts. More than half of the participants did not
preregister, including a large group from the organization Trail Life.
Sherry Shank designed five courses for the event. Generally, the
courses went well. There were some people on Novice and
Intermediate courses that were trying something above their skill
level; and the Advanced Long course was a bit too much for most of the
participants on that course; the temperature was undoubtedly a factor.
We did have several participants from neighboring clubs,
something that does not happen often.
Thanks to Linda Gray, Laurie Opila, Sherry Shank and Jen Livingston for
handling registration. Thanks to Tom Gray for helping with
Start/Finish. Thanks to Sherry Shank for conducting instruction.
And thanks to Joe Logan, Ryan Knecht, Alexis Rzewski and Lee Bash
for doing control pickup.
