National Orienteering Day at Highland Park
September 16, 2006
NOD ROC's at the Highland Bowl. Gary Fallesen featured NOD in his
Friday "Get Out" with the headline: "Orienteering Day encourages families to stay the course".
The turnout was great! There were 110 first timers! Lots of families went out together.
The first orienteering challenge was to find the start because Saturday is Little League
Football time at the South Ave. Rec center and it is was chaos, but Cheryl and Ravi
managed to spot those bewildered faces that said " orienteering? Here? Today?" and get
them to registration. Karl gave his great intro to orienteering many times that afternoon.
We hope to see some of these new families and individuals at future events.
We had a raffle. The United States Orienteering Federation sent us some compasses
to give out.The winners are: James Braun,Carl Palmer,Renee Long, Brian Potter, Cindy
Colony, Florinda Cardenas & Ted Furutan. The free 1 year membership to ROC goes to Steve
Hale and Family
We tried to make the WHITE course very easy, but it managed to confuse a few, The
YELLOW course gave participants a grand tour of beautiful Highland Park, and the SPRINT
barely gave participants a chance to catch their breath. There were a few grumbles that
it was too long for a SPRINT. Next time we promise to make it shorter and follow the
guidelines precisely
