It was a nasty looking day, overcast, temperatures in the upper 40's and low 50's with an occasional sprinkle of rain. Nevertheless, we had a pretty good turnout - 92 people with 43 starts. Jennifer Livingston was meet director and Dave Battista was vetter. Judging by the finishing times, the courses were fairly challenging. A number of competitors noted the up and down nature of the green course; but after all it was the expert level course. (My favorite part was that this was the first meet since WPOC was formed at which I felt it was fair for me to compete on a course - Jim)
Thanks to Alexis Rzewski, Loretta Opila, and Ray & Mindy Wygonik for handling registration. Thanks to Dave Battista for providing instruction. Thanks to Joe Logan and Dave Torick for handling start/finish. And thanks to Dave Torick, Joe Logan and Alexis Rzewski for helping to pick up the controls.
