College Woods – May 6, 2018

Ernst Linder and Faye Doria, Co-Meet Directors

First the forecast was for showers in the late afternoon. Then it changed to all-day showers. But we woke up Sunday to clouds and showers. It turned into a light steady rain by mid-morning and continued most of the day. It was warm, and nearly every runner came out of the woods with a smile on their face. We were pleasantly surprised at the turn-out, with runners competing on every course. We welcomed some returning to orienteering and some leaving the area.

Ernst Linder again did a masterful job of course-setting. He continues to make navigation technical, even with the network of trails. He also printed all the maps, and hung and picked up controls. Bob Lux was invaluable at registration. I’m not sure what I would have done without him! He also hung and picked up controls. Thanks to Steve Terry and Peter Goodwin for picking up controls. And thanks to everyone who showed up and helped in even tiny ways. You know who you are and it is always appreciated.
