Vampire-O

It was a dark and stormy night. Actually, it wasn't terribly stormy - clouds 
and a light mist made it perfect for vampires lurking in the dark without 
putting a damper on the orienteering. Folks arriving early played guessing 
games and word games hosted by Nancy Burgey. We had many orienteers in 
costume which made judging the costume contest a real challenge. The judges 
loved all the costumes, so deliberation continued while course setter Greg 
Michels explained the rules for the Vampire-O. A new twist this year was 
the use of ghost controls that could only be visited during a short time 
window. These controls used e-punch so the vampires couldn't steal the 
points runners received for visiting these controls. However, vampires knew 
when and where there would be plenty of victims so they could trade being a 
vampire for a partially filled paper punch card. After 60 minutes of visiting 
controls and attempting to avoid vampires everyone returned to the lodge to 
enjoy lemonade, hot cocoa and delicious baked goods courtesy of Mary Kolva. 
Prizes were awarded for the judges' favorite costumes, and everyone in costume 
received bonus points added to their Vampire-O score. People who finished the 
event as a vampire were awarded booby prizes from our cache of amazing goodies. 
Top scores from the Vampire-O were given a choice of prize. Thanks to everyone 
who helped: Nancy, Greg, and Mary, also Karl Kolva for pitching in with set up, 
Patty Borden and Carol Moran for registration, Heidi Hall for greeter and awards, 
Jim Borden, Greg Michels and Maggie Hall for flag pickup, Tyler for scoring. Also 
"thanks" to all the "behind the scenes" people like Bob Bundy, Sandra Lomker, 
Steve Tylock, Linda Kohn, Lindsay Worner and others who magically make things 
happen like reserving shelters, recruiting helpers, printing maps and providing 
advice and guidance.
