A beautiful early winter day in the woods for the 2023 Turkey-O at Cuivre River State Park.  Lots of participants and lots of punching (electronically that is).  On average there were 14 CP’s visited per participant!  Nice to see plenty of beginners and first-timers.  And always fun to catch up with everyone that has been doing this for a long time.  For the advanced, the course was “almost cleared” (getting all but one CP).  Thanks to Anne Schrupp for handling the registration table, Jeff Sona for doing beginners briefings and control pickup, and also Matt Scherrer for control pickup.

A special thanks to Mark Geldmeier and all helpers for directing an awesome event. Congrats to Brian Rodenbeck for being the fastest Turkey with the best plan out in the woods!
