The weather turned out great for our annual event at the University of Maryland. Thank you for joining us and showing your school spirit!

Many volunteers made this event possible. I would like to thank Ted Good for keeping the map up to date with all of the ongoing construction on campus, and then designing and setting the large Score-O course. Our faculty sponsors, Dan Lathrop and Rob Briber, were instrumental in interfacing with the numerous departments at the University as we prepared for the event.

Harry Jones, Suzanne Izzo, Dan Lathrop, Don Fish, and Silas Rager arrived early to make sure all the signs, registration tables, restrooms, compasses, and jelly beans were ready for the first runners of the morning. Amy Louden and Valerie Meyer took care of the maps, e-punches, live results, and cookies. Harry, Suzanne, and Jon Torrance were our registration volunteers, while Nadim Ahmed provided beginner instruction for the new to orienteering.

At the end of the day, after all the runners returned, the following people went back out across the campus to collect all the controls and pack up all the equipment for next week: David Levine, John Baker, Jason Hataye, Tom Wells, Parker Nevenglosky, and Silas Rager.

Thanks to Francielo Dalla Costa and everyone else who shared their photos from the event. And lastly, to Florence Tan who brought eclipse glasses so we can safely watch the April 8th eclipse (weather permitting). The glasses will also be available next week at the Granite event.
