Turkey Hunt

November 11, 2006 - Possum Creek MetroPark

Weather: Low 40's dropping into the mid 30's & cloudy.

Attendance: 97 in 49 groups

Thanks for meet assistance: Larry Berna, John Betts, Taylor Brown, and Tom McClory. Taylor helped out while fulfilling a requirement for his orienteering merit badge.

The courses were left in place from the prior day's Miami Valley Junior Orientering Championships.  Competitors can compare their results with others who ran the same course the day before (when it was warm & sunny :-)). In particular, Fairborn, Greenville, and Springboro students should do this.

On the white course Sharon and Ben Bond were leading untill Fairborn's Kim and Morales each led a group around in excellent time. On the yellow course Kim & Morales combined their talnts to lead that course as well. On orange, ROKS alum Brennan Lawall is now a FUNKy UD dude and is running well. I think he would be more comfortable vying for the top spot on green save for his friends on orange. On green Bill Swift posted the most excellent time of 55:47 considering all the honeysuckle I sent green runners through, and Larry Berna couldn't stand still for it. So as a solo competitor this time, ran the course in 53:10.

It was good to see the schools out that missed coming for Friday's MVJOC, though weather-wise Friday was a much nicer day. I hope everyone enjoyed theri trips through Saturday's wet woods.
