McNaughton Park event was BODACIOUS!

Thank you to Keith Turner for putting on a very fun event offering White, Yellow, & Orange courses on a “perfect for orienteering” day.  Keith designed the courses, placed the controls, and presided over the Start/Finish areas. 

 And here is Keith’s Meet Director’s report:

Let me say first that all controls were there when the course was picked up :-) The course was set to bump up the White and Yellow courses a little and tone down the Orange (I'm sorry this time to the adventure racers of the group) to try to give a little bit for everyone. Next year's course will hope for the same white/yellow/orange style and an additional orange for the challenge to those with a competitive spirit. White control #666 was named for a reason but was given more challenge by mother nature the night before (extreme slop). Yellow #309 proved to be a problem for some and was visible from the trail but land forms were not present in the area and should be improved upon in future maps. And finally on Orange #4, a lake was confirmed to not be in that area.

 Thank you to Mike  and Ann Contratto for registration and snacks; the Shook family for bringing the very popular rice krispy treats that we couldn't stop talking about; Gary Schopp for registration assistance and beginner/compass instruction; Trent Turner for Start/Finish assistance and control pickup; and Mike Duncan for food donations, setup and registration assistance.
