We enjoyed a sunny (if a little warm & buggy) event at Balls Bluff that featured a lot of small group starts (136 starts with 209 starters in total) as families took to the woods together on Mother's Day. Jason Hataye was kept busy with beginner training right from 9:30 through till 11, while Harry Jones and Neal took yet more groups after. Participants reported challenging terrain and limited visibility given the maturing foliage. However, these challenges were balanced with well marked trails and a compact venue along with a well set up course. Early runners on the Brown and Red courses enjoyed another (unplanned) challenge arising from a missing flag that seems to have been taken sometime in the evening before the event leaving just a difficult-to-find control box. Thank you to the volunteers who made this family friendly event so enjoyable!
- Amy Louden and Valerie Meyer - key to making the event run smoothly as always, with Valerie printing and sealing the maps the day before, and Amy putting in a looong day from setup to tear down (plus providing yummy treats for finishers).
- Jon & Micah Woolam - coming super early to help with set up
- Cindy Ingalls - keeping us in the good graces of Balls Bluff Elementary School and ensuring the smooth running of the bus service to the registration area.
- Aman from Chariots for Hire - for keeping our participants safe, transporting them too and from the registration area all day.
- Jason Hataye - provided a lot of excellent beginner training to up and coming orienteers.
- Harry Jones, Dave Stefantz and Dan Brennan - under Harry's leadership across two plus shifts the check-in desk ran very smoothly, ensuring every participant was supplied with compasses (and, yes, whistles), training and direction to registration as needed.
- Reiko & David Rager, Dan Brennan, Kasia Wegrzyn, and Bill Wright - collecting controls across steep terrain ahead of incoming bad weather, were a valiant crew that left no (control) behind.
- Justin Brown - set a fun collection of White to Red courses and patiently listened to tales of parallel errors, missed reentrants and otherwise elusive controls throughout the day.
- Dennis Doherty Aaron Linville - from coordinating permits to arranging portapotties and transportation with Chariots for Hire - many thanks to Dennis and Aaron for making this event happen.
- Greg Lennon - handled webmaster and registration duties (and provided guidance to this new Event Director)
- Sidney Sachs - for tracking and handling the stats for the event.
- Craig Shelden - for providing the tools needed to connect with volunteers.
