It was a cool winter day. There was a dusting of snow on the ground. Temperatures were just below freezing, not bad for running. 21 people showed up and enjoyed 1 of 3 courses. Afterwards, we had a nice dinner and conversation at a local restaurant. Hopefully, we can continue that tradition!

Thanks to Brian M. and Antti P. for control pick up and Ioana S. for setting up and designing the courses.

It was a great fall day and 81 people showed up to run, walk, wander around in the woods. The sun was shining and the temperatures gradually rose from sub freezing in the early morning to the mid 40's by early afternoon. Antti and Sanni set 3 courses and we once again used Emit electronic punching on the medium and long courses.

It appeared everything went smoothly and everyone had a good time. There were a few falls in the rocky terrain, but no serious injuries to report. The courses were great. It was nice to see a few faces from days gone by and a few new faces, too.

Many people joined in to help pick up controls including Dan, Chris, Rich, Susie, Sanni and Ryan. It didn't take long to collect the markers and by 3PM we were heading out for a little socializing and food at a local cafe. It was a nice way to end the day.

It was a beautiful fall day. Temperatures were in the low 60's and the sun was shining.

Lee T. continued his streak of setting up courses at Lapham Peak. This was his 4th or 5th in a row. Thanks Lee.

This year's event was a 100 minute score-O with 10 points per marker and 1 point per minute you got in early. Being late was a 10 point/minute penalty.

Thanks to Brian M., Scott, Roy and Antti for control retrieval.

We used Emit electronic punching for the first time at a regular event. Unfortunately, I hung a marker in the wrong location on the long course which messed up the results. It was another beautiful day. So, in spite of the control snafu, people seemed to have a good time.

The results posted are starting from the 3rd marker and going to the finish. That takes the missing control out and the 3rd control ends up being the start, as it were. That seemed to me to be a reasonable way to get reasonable results. The disqualification was from punching out of sequence. 24 people participated.

The event was also held on a new map I finished this year. I hope everyone liked it.

A big thanks to Susie M. for running registration and Antti, Sanni and Brian M. for picking up controls.

Last week we started a series of summer events in Madison parks. The idea is to offer some fun and easy courses for people in the Madison area. This was a last minute decision and as usual when we do that we end up with less people. But you haven't missed out completely yet. We still have two more events the next two Thursdays.

Next week's event will be on a new map of Olin Park. We will start from the parking lot on the EAST side of the park. It is near the intersection of John Nolan Dr. and Olin Ave. If you enter the park on the other side, you probably won't find us. Look for the orange and white signs with the black arrow and for the orange and white "box kite" marker. We will be near the entrance to Turville Park.

We just completed our second event and we've had great weather for both. See the results below.

Thanks to Scott B., Susie M. and Chris D. for helping out with these events.

Was that snow I saw out there? Yes, it was. We had a damp day with a little bit of everything. There was sunshine, rain and a little snow, too. Temperatures were good for running, but cool for standing around. I think it was probably mid 40's.

Brian M. set some nice courses. The looooooooong course was 7.5K and took over 90 minutes for the winner to complete. The medium course was just as tough, but only 5.1K. The short course was beginner appropriate and well received.

One interesting note on the event was the large short course participation. There was some good competition going on in that category. It is unusual at our events to have more short course people than long course people.

Thanks to Brian M. for setting it up and to Chris S., Da Boyz, Da Girlz and the Bailey family for picking controls.

It was a cool, blustery day at Kettle Moraine, but the rain tapered off just as the first runners started. The rain may have dampened turnout for the club (state) champs, but 49 intrepid souls turned out to run on some of the best, least-trailed, terrain around.

The long course was 6.4K, and kevin took home state champs honors in 51:40 with quite a speedy run. Next in the state was Brian T. at 82:31, but not until after a couple of friends from Chicago put in times around the hour mark (a little after kevin's run).

There was a "medium" course at this event as well - medium in length, but advanced in difficulty. Susie took home the honors with a time of 118:55 on the 4.1K course.

The short course was well used by a number of groups from as far away as Milwaukee and Appleton. Jordan and Alyssa rounded the 2.8K with a winning time of 41:15.

Thanks to everyone who came this far north, and especially to Scott B., Susie M., Steph H., and Brian M. for picking up controls. You guys make it easy to be a meet director.

The first Badger Club rogaine went well. The weather was fantastic with temperatures in the 50's and the sun showed up in partly cloudy skies.

26 people participated and there was good competition at the top. One point separated each of the top 5 spots with Andrei and Clark edging out Pete and Chris for top honors. There were a total of 30 markers placed in a large area. There were quite a lot of different route choices that were made. Those who raced can follow the routes of the other teams by looking at the order that teams got their markers, which is listed in the results.

Thanks go out to lots of people who picked up a control or two, these include Doug M and his partner, Brian P., Anthony L., Todd P. and Darryn K., Jim G. and Doug P.. A special thanks to Erin B., Pete W., Chris M., Andrei and Clark who all did double duty picking up controls twice. I was very happy to be able to drive out just after 6pm with everything picked up! Thanks again to everyone who pitched in.

Once again we had sandhill cranes flying around prior to the scout event. It was a pleasant, but cool day with an occasional hint of sunlight. We got a nice mix of people from young kids to adventure racers. Susie did an excellent job in her second go at meet directing. We got a few new people and as usual, most people said they had a good time.

The scout event had a low turnout. This was probably due to spring break. We'll have to keep that in mind when scheduling the event in the future. Nevertheless we had 5 teams and 13 scouts running in the woods looking for markers. Afterwards, we used the same controls for the regular club event which was also a score-O.

The controls could be taken in any order. The winner's route was 4.1K in the following order.. 4, 14, 1, 2, 3, 5, 13, 11, 12, 9, 8, 10, 7, 6.

Thanks to Brian T. and Susie for control pickup and Cathy Y. for help at registration.

Wow! 60's in November for our last event of the year. This event was a late addition to the schedule and therefore the turnout was low. But those who did show up had a great time on a wonderful day.

This was the State championship event. Up until now we hadn't had time for one. A couple months ago Brian M. mentioned that he would be willing to set up an event. He decided on Glacial Blue Hills in West Bend. He also decided to have the long course be without trails to make it championship tough. It worked and we had a excellent course, like a mini Cat's Meow.

The long course was 4.5K and hilly. The woods were really pretty with all the leaves off the trees. kevin ran the course in 39:43 to take the state title. Scott B. was second in 51:14 an d Ryan J. was 3rd in 59:58.

Thanks to Brian M., Eric R. and kevin for control retrieval and of course, Brian M. for setting the whole thing up. It was his first time as event director.

It was overcast and in the 50's. Rain was a threat that never materialized.

Lee T. continued his streak of setting up courses at Lapham Peak. This was his third or fourth year in a row. Thanks Lee.

There were two courses set, a 2.4K short and a 4.4K long. With 14 markers the long course was fast paced. You needed quick and accurate route choices. Any time spent standing around really hurt. Some had slower results than usual due to running the 10K race at the park in the morning.

Thanks to Brian M. and kevin(picked them up while running the course) for control retrieval.

It was a beautiful morning, partly cloudy and warm. We had 41 participants, including about 20 children, from toddlers to teen.

Some folks decided one course was enough, but the majority completed both courses. Everyone had fun, and there seemd to be quite a bit of interest in future events!

The long course was a solid 6.5K. Carl S. showed up to claim 1st place with a nifty 57 minute run. Ian H. took 2nd in 64 minutes.

HEPCAT! I loved terrain on the new map and the nice open woods on a lot of it. The weather did NOT cooperate, but it actually was a pretty cool day anyway. To start off it was really foggy and sprinkling a little bit. But I didn't get too wet setting up the courses. But by 11am the rain had pretty much stopped and it was nice, though cloudy and damp. At the end we got hit with a little more rain, but it wasn't bad. 27 people participated.

The long course was a middle distance of 4.6K with a long run out and in from the parking/start area. The first few markers were a bit easier, but after that there was more route choice and some tricky navigating. It wasn't super hard if you were careful. But if you weren't you could count on losing some time. Maricel O. from CAOC came back in 35:20, while east coast transplant Doug M. took second in 44:30. I didn't hear anything but nice comments about the courses/map.

Thanks to Brian M. who picked up the long course and Doug for snagging the short course. It is really, no REALLY appreciated when people help pick up controls and don't you forget it!!! : )

We had a very challenging long course of 6.7K, but that didn't stop anyone but Lee from successfully completing the course. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and the short course.

Today it was overcast with temperatures around 30 degrees. The sandhill cranes were out in force. They could be seen walking in the field just 40 yards away and flying overhead. A redtailed hawk was building a nest in view, too. There were about 100 participants.

The scout event was first with a 50 minute score-O. We had one team get 11 markers in 50 minutes and 2 others got 9.

The regular event was also a score event.

This was the inaugural day on the Cat's Pajamas map. It was made last spring by Ivar Helgesen. It has some typical moraine terrain. But unlike the other maps has more flat areas, fields and pine plantations. If you like more of a variety of terrain on your course, this is the map for you.

Everything went according to plan. We had quite a few new people and gave a few beginner's clinics. Winning times were right where we wanted them. We had a special guest, Anna S., who came up from St. Louis, MO. She a member of the U.S. junior team and showed why by winning the long course.

However, more important is the top finisher from the state of Wisconsin, since this was the state championship event. For the first time in club history this honor went to a woman. Ioana S. edged out Charlie S. by 2 minutes to claim the title. Congratulations Ioana.

Thanks again to Brian M. for helping pick up controls and Lee T. for helping with registration. If you ever want to help out at an event, just ask. We almost always can use an extra person for starts, registration and control pick up. It's a great way to get to know people better.

Today was a beautiful day. The temperatures were in the 60's and it was mostly sunny. We had 74 participants.

It seemed like an orderly day at registration with people conveniently not all showing up at the same time.

Thanks again to Brian M. for helping pick up controls, Lee's friend for helping with registration and Lee T. for once again setting up the Lapham Peak event. I'm sure he's getting to know the park better than almost anyone else.

If you had trouble with #10(long course) you weren't alone. From time to time you get a misplaced control even though we do our best to not let this happen. That was the case for #10. Sorry about that....

Today was a beautiful day. The temperatures were in the 60's and it was partly sunny. A few threatening clouds passed by, but nothing serious.

We had a small turnout which was too bad. Svein set up a beautiful short course and a nice challenging long course. Hel also brought some watermelon for after the courses. Everything went off without a hitch, as we ended our spring portion of the year.

Thanks again to Brian M. for helping pick up controls, and Svein for setting it up and running registration

The weather was supposed to be in the low 50's with a good chance for a little rain. But a cold front moved in and made it a bit chilly for standing around in. It was nice for hiking and running in the hilly West Bend park. 27 people turned out to participant.

There was only one course for this event, a long course with 19 controls. But the long course participants were required to do the course without a map. At each control they would find a small piece of the map which showed where the next control was. You would have to memorize the route before leaving.

Memory O is a good exercise for what you should be doing even when you have a map. You need to simplify the route you take and ignore lots of the details along the way. This exercise forces you to do that.

Thanks to Ioana S. and her friend for setting up the event and running registration. Also, thanks to Brian who hung around to help pick up controls. That kind of help is always greatly appreciated. : )

We finally had some fortune with the weather. Temperatures were in the 60's and it was sunny. In fact, it was probably too warm. But we'll take it!

About 60 people showed up to enjoy the weather and some orienteering. The courses turned out to be too challenging. Times on both the long and the short courses were much longer than usual. Much of this was due to the prickly ash which has increased dramatically since the map was made. Many areas that were once very enjoyable to run in have become covered with the thorny trees. Unless there is improvement in the area, I suspect we will not be using it much in the future. While the terrain is very interesting, the thorns are a bit overwhelming. We have many other areas that are much more enjoyable and have much nicer forest.

Thanks to Ryan for setting up the event and running registration.

We've had a record year for snow in some places in Wisconsin. So, on this 40 degree day with sunshine it was still possible to run in the white stuff. It's becoming a Badger Club tradition. It was a beautiful day and the woods were a wintery wonderland. Some people were skiing the trails when I arrived early to set up the last few controls. Charlie S. ended up hanging them by skiing to the locations.

But the snow was only about ankle deep in most places, and early runners stayed on top of it. Later in the day it softened up which made running more difficult. The winning time was just under 10 min/K(42:06) and was posted by Maricel O. from CAOC. Scott B. appears to have stayed fit over the winter and logged a strong second place finish in 50:25. Charlie S. rounded out the top 3 with a 53:41.

Thanks to Charlie S. for hanging a few controls and Ivar H. for helping to pick up controls at the end.

For the 4th year in a row we got hit with snow at our final event. There was no snow on Friday, but by Sunday we had 5 inches and it was drizzling. But the park had plowed the road we needed, and Ryan had set up some nice courses. Temperatures were just above freezing all day.

With many people anticipating bad driving conditions and lots of snow the turnout was quite small(19). But those who came had nothing but good things to say at the end of their runs. Kellings Lakes is indeed a very nice place for orienteering. And the courses offered a good challenge. The road, by the way, were in good driving condition for the most part.

Kevin picked up the coveted title of Wisconsin State Champion with a time of 61:20. Not far behind was Joe S., who made the trip up from Chicago. Anthony L. finished 3rd with what may be his best ever finish. Nice job Anthony!

But all this fun would not have been possible without a lot of hard work by Ryan J. who set up his first ever club event. Everyone seemed pleased with the results of his efforts. Not only did he set up the courses, but also took down most of the markers. Thank you Ryan!

Writing only from rumors I heard....The weather was fantastic and we had a nice turnout. I set the courses, but was unable to be present, since I was competing at the U. S. Champs in Virginia. A team of others came together and took care of the day of the event work. Thanks to Lee T., Alan H., Ryan J. and anyone else who pitched in(I'd put your names up, but I don't know who you are.

From the course times I can see that the course was indeed tough. I'm sure times were also slower due to the often times rocky gound. I hope you enjoyed the challenge!

The weather was perfect for the event. It was sunny and cool. I think temperatures ended up in the 60's. We got our best turnout ever for a Blue Mound event with 76 people participating. They were treated to some interesting orienteering in some greener than usual forest. Everything went off without a hitch.

Thanks go to Rich J. for setting up the courses and running registration. Shane and Colleen picked up the long course controls, and Rachael helped with registration for a bit. Thank you for you support.

Today's event was the christening of our latest cat map, Cat's Agenda. This area across from Cat's Meow has a nice mix of trails, openings and wooded kettle moraine terrain. The long course was particularly challenging, with a variety of markers causing people problems.

I heard a lot of positive remarks about the new area, and would like to hear what you thought of it, as well. I felt the course was A-meet quality and the terrain is first class. You can tell good terrain from the results. The best people hold their own, but weaker orienteers fall back quite a bit. Some of the DNF's were from people who had to leave before they finished the course. It definitely was a good challenge and congratulations to all who found all the markers!

Maricel snuck in at the last minute and posted a 50:50 winning time. Marco was just a few minutes behind in 53:33.

Thanks to everyone who helped out. This would include Rich and Lee with registration, and Brian and Scott with control pick up. The temperatures were around 80 and mostly sunny. It rained lightly for a few minutes.

We had a nice 50 degree day with partly cloudy skies. This led to having a nice turnout of over 50 people. The heavy snowfall from earlier in the week left the course soggy and snowcovered. The fact that our Devil's Lake map is of high quality and in a beautiful area, also contributed to the good turnout.

Thanks to Alexei D. who hung the markers and picked up most of them, too. I picked up a few, too, as I ran the course.

It was Alexei's goodbye to the club, as he will be returning to his homeland, Latvia, shortly. Hopefully, we'll see him again at some orienteering event in Europe! After all, it's a small, small world.

Also, thanks to Rich J. who sat in at the finish area when we left to pick up controls. Even little jobs like that make our job of putting on these events a little easier. Staying late to help pick up a few controls is also greatly appreciated.

This day we had our 9th annual scout event. It was the end of spring break and the forecast was for thunderstorms. This may have been the cause for the smaller than usual turnout. We still had about 50 participants.

The weather was threatening all day, but during the scout event it didn't rain. During the regular club event it rained sporatically, but the temperatures weren't bad if you were moving. The event was a score-O where participants had 1 hour to find as many of the 16 markers as possible. Most of the regular club members were able to get to all of them within the time limit.

Thanks to Alan H. for hanging and picking up the controls. Also thanks to John S. for taking care of publicity and registration for the scout event. Everything went very smoothly, as usual.

We christened our latest map at Wildcat Mound by holding a two day local event. The hope was to get a few more people to travel there, since it is fairly far away from our core of support in the Madison/Milwaukee areas. This strategy did get a few extra people who spent the night in Black River Falls and orienteered both days.

Attendance was 20 and 23 respectively, which is good considering the remote location. We drew people from Minnesota and Kansas. The weather was unseasonable warm with temperatures both days in the 70's. Add to that mostly sunny skies, beautiful forest and a new map, and you come up with a good time!

I didn't hear any major complains with the map. Overall, I think people found it to be an excellent area and a nice map. Participants were treated to great vistas from the top of the bluffs, where you could see in both directions for many miles.

I was please to find a few orienteers that were really happy to have a map a little closer to them than usual. This was one of the reasons I made the map in an area so far away from our base, to make it easier for some people to attend an event.

Thanks to Joe E. who helped me pick up markers on Day 1! Also, thank you to Lee T. for bringing water each day. And Lee T. and Cathy Y. for helping with registration on Day 2.

Charlie spent a long day at the park setting up three different courses. When he sends me a write up I'll post it here. This was the second event in a row that he set up! Thanks Charlie!

A few years back we had an event we fondly call the snow goose. It was held at Goose Lake and we got 8 inches of snow the night before the event. This was in the years of lower attendance, and that pretty much knocked everyone out. I was the only runner to complete the long course.

Well, now we have a snow cat. Roughly 8 inches of snow fell in the Northern Kettle Moraine Friday and made this event similar to the snow goose. 30 people showed up and loved the terrain, though some weren't as fond of the snow that covered it. Temperatures were on the cold side, with the high around 20 degrees. What happened to the warm temperatures of last weekend?

The courses were, of course, challenging. The fastest long course time(Joe S.) was over 1 hour. Afterwards, he said he'd had a pretty clean run and kept in contact with the map at all times. I finished in 70 minutes(while picking up the controls) to reclaim the state championship title. Thanks go out to Charlie S. for setting everything up and hanging around to pick up markers afterwards.

This ends the 2006 version of the club. It was a very good year, but next year has even more promise. Ya'll come back now, ya hear?

Weather reports claimed a chance of rain/snow, but temperatures were in the mid 40's and we had a great grey fall day for orienteering. Thanks to new club member David R. who set the courses and to his family who ran registration. Also, thanks to Chris D. who helped David with control pick up.

I'd like to thank Alexei for delivering the maps, Al C. and Bob F. for helping with registration, and Brian M. for helping with control pick up. Also, of course, a big thanks to Lee T. who put the event together.

In an attempt to get more people we also opened this event up as a day event for those who are afraid of the dark. But as usual with late postings, this had little if any effect. Perhaps in the future we'll schedule a night event with a day event on the regular schedule.

The night O attracted people as far away as Lithuania. We had 13 participants, a common number for our night O events. The weather was pleasant and it was a very social event. Insects weren't a problem either.

Control pick up was smooth with Rich J. picking up markers as he went on loop 1 and Nic R. collecting loop 2 on his way around the course. Rick S. picked up the short course on his bike, and we were out of there by 11pm. Thanks to Rick S. for volunteering to set up the course, and Nick and Rich for picking up controls.

We had another fantastic day! The temperatures were about 60 and it was mostly sunny. We had a nice turnout of 48. The long course was fantastic. It may have been our most challenging course ever. There were very few catching features(features that help you know when you missed a marker). The woods overall were very nice.

The short course also posed some challenges, including a big depression on the last control.

A big thanks to Rich J., Drago and David R. for picking up all of the controls. Thanks to Lee T., Cathy Y., Rich J. and Ioana S. for helping with registration. And a special thanks to Ioana for making the long trip up to the northern kettle moraine state forest to set up and plan the courses.

Well, I missed this one. I set up the course, but had to teach a class right during the event. Skies were clear, cool and breezy. When I was vetting the course, things were much drier. The days before the event were filled with rain, which swelled the streams and marshes. On Friday night when I hung controls some of the trails were streams. This added to the beauty I thought but pretty much guaranteed wet feet and some tricky river crossings. The marsh to the north of the road was dry at the edges before the rain. Afterwards, you either had to go through bushes or get your feet wet. While vetting and then while hanging markers, I was able to find ways through the thicker, prickly stuff. From race day reports, it sounded like that was not true for everyone.

I set the course with more controls than I usually do. It was like a middle distance event with lots of short legs and quick decision making. But the winning time would seem to indicate a classic distance course. I'm sure times were slow due to stream crossings, rocky ground, brushy woods and some difficult control locations. I hope you enjoyed the challenge!

Cathy Y., Lee T. and Alan H. all helped out with registration and timing. Ioana and Dave S., Rick S. and team, Jeff P., Gil and nephew all helped with control retrieval. Thank you all very much!

ps Some of the non finishing long course people only had time to complete a portion of the long course. Thus their times aren't listed.

Temperatures were below normal for this time of year. We usually get great weather and sunshine. But this year it was cloudy and cold for the annual scout event.

We had another nice turnout of 103 scouts and leaders. 8 troops participated and we had a very close race. In the end it was Team A(Carl Cortright, Eric Zimmerer) of Pack 302 taking home the blue ribbons with 20 points. The Troop 514 Monkeys(John Robinson, Kurt Bennett, Dalton Worley, Keneth Tesman, Joey Robinson, Zack Simonson) got second just 1:30 behind. And Troop 840 Team C(Cody Delucaux, Nathion, Korinek, Jermey Moroder, Matthew Tregs) finished a strong third with 19 points in 53:43.

As for the regular club event held at noon, we had a relatively small turnout with quite a few new faces. The event was exactly the same as the scout event, a 1 hour score event with 20 markers.

Thanks go out to Alan and John for setting up the course and handling scout registration, and Ryan J. and Rich J. for helping pick up markers.

As usual the Wisconsin State Championship was eventful! To begin with, we had a new map in the Northern Kettle Moraine State Forest. This small 1.2K square map was more than enough to challenge even the best orienteers. Just to make things harder we had 3 inches of snow fall the day before. This made the hilly terrain slippery and difficult to run in. But the scene was picturesque. White snow glistening off the trees, and hardly a footprint in the snow(prior to the event). The sun was out and there was little or no wind. The stage was set...

Unfortunately, we did have a few troubles this fine day. To begin with, I had three wrong control numbers in the clues on the Medium course. Needless to say, this caused many a young orienteer a lot of problems. And then, to make matters worse, we handed some of those maps to long course people. The end result was disappointment for quite a few people. Fortunately, for the long course people who got the right maps, everything was set up correctly.

Joe S. came up from the Chicago area and went home with an impressive 26 minute victory(70:40). However, given that he is not a Wisconsin resident, he is not eligible to be state champion. That honor goes to Ryan J. with a time of 96:25. Congratulations Ryan!

Feedback on the map was positive. I threw the map together pretty fast and it still needs some improvement. But overall it is still good. The map will be expanded in the future, and I hope to use the map twice a year.

Some people are listed in the Medium course even though they intended to do the long course. We did have their Medium course time and that was the best compromise given the situation. The day ended for me with a drive home at night looking at a crescent moon and a bright planet(Venus) positioned closely together.

Thanks to Lee T., Andy M. and Cathy Y. for helping with registration, and Brian and Rich for helping pick up markers.

This event was the first club event held on the south bluff. We had a modest turnout of 50 for this event. The skies were overcast, but the rain held off until we were picking up controls. Temperatures were in the 50's. All in all a very nice day. Being fall meant we got free apples compliments of Lee T. Homegrown on his apple tree, those apples are sweet!

We had 3 courses set up for the day, a long, medium and short. The medium and short were very similar with the last couple of controls on the medium course a little harder than the short course controls. The long course went up on the south bluff, which required about a 300 foot climb during the race.

Being autumn most of the leaves had fallen off and the woods were very pretty. The long course had few trails. Once on the bluff there were no trails to follow or relocate from. Participants could use the top of a hill and some obvious reentrants in the big valley on the hill. But some of the legs offered little help in staying on course. Contouring and pace counting came in handy today.

Thanks to Alan for hanging and picking up the short course, vetting the long course and handling registration. Also, thank you to Lee T. who once again pitched in at registration.

Once again the weather cooperated with temperatures in the high 70's and sunny. 98 people participated and most of them checked in after finishing(remember to always check in when you are done). Maricel O.(CAOC) had a good run and edged out kevin by 2 minutes. The long course was honeysuckle filled which made running difficult at times. We ventured into some areas of the map we hadn't been to in quite a while. Some short legs kept us off the trails as much as possible.

Thanks to Ioana for designing and setting up the courses, and to Ioana, Dave and Dragos for picking up controls afterwards.

What a fantastic day! We had perfect weather and three nice courses to choose from. We had a steady flow of participants, so things went smoothly.

Thanks to Cathy, Ioana, Rich and kevin for picking up markers after the event. And of course, to Rich J. for setting the whole thing up.

The weather was warm and unpredictable. There had been thunderstorms the previous days. But tonight there was to be no rain and we had a fun event!

There were 2 courses, but nobody selected the short course. Attendance was sparse meaning a lot of people missed a good time. : ( After meeting at the entrance to Picnic Point we proceded into the park to start the event. The long course had two loops of 11 controls that were forked in various locations. Everything ran smoothly and by about 11pm we were picking up markers and heading home!

Many thanks to Giovanni and Katia for setting up this event on a map that has their apartment on. They also picked up all the controls.

We had a seasonal and overcast day. It was a nice day for a run in a park.

We had 21 markers on a 5.6K course. The first 12 markers were on the north half of the park and were also the short course(2.7K).

It was a pretty routine day without any surprises.

Spring finally seemed to return with normal temperatures(45) for this time of year. It was brisk if you were standing around in your orienteering suit. But once you got moving, the temperature was fine.

It was an interesting event. First it appeared we'd have a small turnout due to the cool and windy weather. Only 5 groups had gone out by noon and the parking lot was pretty empty. But then people started to show up and before it was over it was getting difficult to find a parking space. Attendance was 72.

The long course appeared short at first glance, 5.3K, but the terrain is tricky and the prickly ash is thick. Times were quite slow because of that. The short course had a couple of tougher than usual markers at the end which slowed down alot of people on that course. Some people noticed the abundance of prickly ash. But there is no denying that the terrain is very interesting, and I think most everyone enjoyed their day in spite of their scratches.

Bob F. set up and designed the courses. He also picked up markers. If you didn't already, tell him thanks next time you see him. It was a fun event.
