24 people braved the cold and snow to participate in the Night-O and Search & Destroy-O at Cricket Holler, followed by the traditional potluck party.

The rules were simple: a mass start at 6pm, with 1 hour to punch as many controls (out of 20) as you cared to find. At 7pm, the air horn blasted again and the event turned into the Search & Destroy-O, where the object was to collect and bring back all the controls you could find. Each control returned was worth 1 point. 3 of the controls also used the white controls stands, and each stand was worth 1 point.

The course was designed by Ben Bond, who made it difficult this year. The challenge control was number 10, in the far southeast, very overgrown, corner of the camp. Only 3 competitors made it to that control, Matt Bond, Peter Plantaga, and Jim Hayes.

This year saw the first use of the "Matt Bond Rule". By popular vote, he was held back 1 minute from the rest of the competitors at the start. This allowed everyone else to get a jump, but he almost still won. He was still the only person to clear all 20 controls, but the mighty Search-and- Destroy-O capabilities of Peter and Jim did him in.
