Meet Results

  2005–06 Season Kickoff

Reedy Creek Nature Preserve | 17-Sept-2005 | David Alexander, meet director.

September 17th was National Orienteering Day (NOD) and also the first COK event of the 2005–2006 season. We had set beginner (White, Yellow) and intermediate (Orange) level courses for the general public, and for the regulars we had a Sprint course. In a Sprint, the emphasis is on speed, route choice and quick decision making. The Sprint was short, 2.8k and navigation yellow/orange level, but at 90^○ and humid, you had to push pretty hard to get the 30 to 45 minute finish times.

Overall we had a good turnout with over 100 participants and everyone had a good time. Congratulations to Tony Randall, 16, from South Caldwell HS who received a Nexus 7DNL compass, thanks to Brunton who donated several items for the NOD event. After the meet Saturday, we held the clubs annual picnic and membership meeting. Many thanks to Barbara Scruggs and Bill Ketring who volunteered to prepare the food. We had hotdogs and hamburgers with all the fixins. The food was excellent and enjoyed by all, even a few JROTC. Also volunteering were Pam & Michelle Smith, with registration and time keeping, Bill Ketring with instructions and Don Christensen with control pick-up. Thanks to all who helped make the event a success.
