After a week of teaching orienteering at the Tecumseh YMCA (by Matt Bond & Loren Ringo) the kids are ready for a real orienteering event. A rainy night resulted in the temperatures being cooled off to a very cool summer day with the high only reaching 75-degrees. Other than a little mud, which really challenged the kids that opted to wear sandals & the usual summer growth, it was quite an excellent day for some O-fun. Joshua & Nicole Berna completed field flagging & Joshua also helped with control placement. There was an added bonus Friday in that we saw a duck round up by a dozen park rangers. The ducks were herded-up, tagged, then released.

Excellent cool summer weather provided great conditions for this event. Even though I had the memory-O maps laminated, they still drew moisture, which provided quite the challenge for a couple of the yellow Memory-O controls. Thanks to all the volunteers. Michael Berna & Justin helped with refreshments. Joshua Berna worked the start/finish & helped with GPS programming. Steve Barnhart & Katie Williams helped with picking-up controls.
