Heritage Reservation
Orienteering Meet
29 September 2024


It was a dull overcast day with temperatures in the low 60s; it looked like it could rain at any time but all we got were a few sprinkles. Again, we were at a venue far from Pittsburgh; but the turnout was not bad because of some scouts that were already at Heritage. We had a total of 27 starts from 49 participants even though half a dozen people who preregistered did not come.

Jen Livingston designed five courses to test the participants. No one reported any problems with the courses; in fact, many returned to the finish and said they really liked the courses. There was one reported injury; but other than that, everyone seemed to have a good time. Some of the scouts even regarded themselves as competing against the other scouts on the Beginner course.

Thanks to Jim Wolfe for vetting. Thanks to John Pane, Ryan Repp and Loretta Opila for handling registration/check-in. Thanks to Jim Wolfe for helping with start/finish. Thanks to Naomi Jarvis for conducting instruction. And thanks to Ryan Repp, Christee and John Homan, Naomi Jarvis, Jen Livingston and Jim Wolfe for doing control pickup.
