Thanks to all the participants! We had a great turnout for a Tuesday evening event. Laumeier Sculpture Park is definitely a treasure. Thank you for allowing me to indulge in a bit of whimsy…I doubt you’ve seen “crack in the Earth”, or “watch for deer poop” as control point clues before. Also thanks to the Brennan family for reminding me that this location was their first orienteering experience… A class given in partnership with the Saint Louis County Parks (where I was the instructor)…oh and that was in 2007…yikes! Finally, a big thanks to Jeff and Tom Ryan for the control pickup.

A big “Thank You!” to everyone who came out for the sprints at Tower Grove last evening! The weather was perfect, and for whatever reason, the gnats, flies, and mosquitoes were no-shows!

And also, many thanks to Matt S for help with registration and to the many who helped with control pickup and cleanup after the meet (Matt, Bryan, Gannon, Josh, Jeff, Tom, Mark G, Nathan, who’d I forget?)
