The New England Orienteering Club

Blue Hills, Milton, MA
November 22, 2015
Traverse Meet Director: Jeff Saeger
"Other courses" Meet Director: Jim Paschetto

 We started the day with nice orienteering weather ...then the cold rain moved in. Late runners and control picker-uppers we not comfortable in the woods.

The "Recreational" side of the "Traverse meet" was busy, as it seems to be every year. Fortunately volunteers came from all quarters for this final NEOC meet of 2015—we had more helpers than we could use! (...like the end of It's a Wonderful Life.)

First, I want to thank Traverse-runner Peter Amram for designing the Rec. courses, flagging every control location, hanging the most-distant controls, stocking the water stop, and being so darn organized! Titular-meet-director-me had very little to do except recruit helpers.

Thanks to all the others who helped, or came to help but weren't needed: Richard Powers, John Kernochan, Roger & Trisha Underwood, Bill Binette, Sylvie Guichard, Pete Frykman, Scott Turner, and Karl DeBisschop (who came solely to pick up controls). Special Thanks to: Pia Webb, who came early to hang controls and stayed late to pick up many controls(!); expert trainers Ken Menzies and Tim Booth, who conducted a mini-Scout-O for the lucky group from Troop 61; Judy Karpinski, who didn't rest after Traverse check-in, but worked Rec. registration (and gave us all hot soup!); Joanne Sankus for photography (to be posted soon) and for returning a load of wet gear to the locker; and Bud O'Leary, who printed all the Rec. maps.

Apologies for the tardy results.      - Jim Paschetto
