Deer Lakes Park
Orienteering Meet
29 August 2021


It was a very hot late August day with the temperature hovering around 90, and probably the humidity too.  It  got darker as the day went on; but it didn't rain until near the end of control pick-up - mostly, that affected Christee Homan.  We had a pretty good turnout with 31 starts from 73 participants.  There were very few starts on the intermediate and advanced courses and not a lot of success from those who did those courses.  A  couple people who had preregistered for these decided to step down to a shorter/easier course; with the heat and the dense vegetation in some areas, this was understandable.

Joe Logan designed the five courses.  Participants on the beginner and novice courses were clearly having a good time.  There were even a couple of first timers who did both of those courses.  We did manage to attract a couple participants from the neighboring club in Ohio.  On the longer courses, participants brought back a lot of souvenirs  (burrs mostly).

Thanks to Barbara Johnstone, Nathaniel Hazelton, Naomi Jarvis and Laurie Opila for handling registration/check-in.  Thanks to Sherry Shank and Joe Logan for doing instruction.  Thanks to Kevin and Sydney Fisher, Christee Homan, and  Alexis and Luca Rzewski for doing control pick-up.

Our next event will be on 26 September at the Babcock Division of Gallitzin S.F. - it will be the first ever event in that area.
