Meet Director: Robin Spriggs

Course Setter/Map Maker: Sherry Litasi

String-O Course Setter/Map Maker: Tina Litasi

Well many of you missed out on a great Street/Park-O Score Event atWillow Creek on Saturday. Sherry's map, which I know took a lot of time, was excellent to run on with route choice quite difficult so as not to pass the same control twice - you really did need to plan your legs well - not like me. A couple of people lost themselves temporarily - not as easy as some may think, especially if trying to go too fast. A lot of the running could be planned to be in park-land, which made it all the more pleasant. There were 29 controls and the most collected was 21. Each control was worth 5 points with 5 being taken off for each minute late.

Tina, Sherry's daughter, drew a map for the String Course - it was wonderful and lots of fun with a choice of great stickers at each control.

Thanks very much Sherry and Tina - thanks, also, for the Easter treats which finishers won.

Major helpers were two Scouts from Parker - thanks so much - we really did need your help on the registration table - as you say!! Thanks also to those who brought in controls.

This event was enjoyed so much by all those who ran, that Sherry will maybe organise another in the Fall.
