Garden of the Gods Halloween-O
27 October 2001

We had an absolutely gorgeous day in the Garden of the Gods. The temperatures were in the 70s, the sky as blue as it gets, and the scenery fantastic. I was truly surprised by the number of people showing up and, thanks to the helpers that popped up, the meet went fine. Some of the control flags were haunted by goblins overnight: a punch had been exchanged for a red clothes pin, another punch was tied shut. Fortunately, at those controls, the goblins left some stickers so orienteers could prove that they were there. A lot of controls flags were covered with spiderwebs and many had baskets of treats to keep the sugar level high while on the course!

Thanks to Bob Mc Bride for doing beginner's instruction and Steve Dornseif for registration; Louise ended up doing start AND finish the whole time which was a tremendous help! Control picker-uppers were Carson Black, Ladislav Jezev, Steve Dornseif, Gabi Egli and Jim Sanders. I picked up the last controls by nightfall as the meet had gone on all afternoon.

Bob McBride will do the results which is a great relief of work for me. Thanks to everyone who came!
