And the Winners Are:
Despite the slow start due to a long winter last year proved to be an active and exciting year for orienteering. The Point Series recognizes those club members that run in races at the recreational meets the club offers during the year. Its main purpose is to encourage members to go orienteering locally as much as possible and subsequently to improve their abilities. It should be noted that only solo efforts are eligible for points and consequently group efforts do not score any points.
There were more than 850 individual courses run, with 145 NEOC members scoring points during the 2015 season. Sixteen of the participants in the point series scored points in the maximum of 10 races. There were ample opportunities to score points from the first race of the season, the Pine Bluffs ski-O on 31 JAN and ending with the 23rd meet of the season, the Blue Hills meet on 22 NOV. The average number of scoreable races run by point series participants was 4.48. This year there were several classes that did not have anyone running in them(!).
Let’s do a quick recap of the classes and the class winners.
