The New England Orienteering Club

Wanderings BYOM, Medford, MA
August 28 - September 4, 2023
Meet Director: Jim Crawford

Wanderings is finished, with a lot of people commenting how much they enjoy this unique event. I had problems reading my email during the event; I apologize that I was not able to respond to some questions people had.

Congratulations to Aaron Aaker who won the grueling Combo this year, and to 7-yr-old Elise Berkowski who just became a member and did most of the controls in the Lawrence Woods. Way-to-go Elise!

The course is still out there if anybody wants to give it a try. I won't take the telephone pole stickers down for another week, but even without them you can still run/bike a course. Below are the results I have. If you ran the course but do not see your names below, please email me so I can get an accurate count of how many participated. My tally says 27 people participated. Also let me know if I made any errors below
