RESULTS SUMMARY

This event drew a record crowd of over 70 participants, which included close to 40 cadets from six local area cadet units who participated  as part of their annual zone orienteering competition.  The weather was absolutely perfect and the competition for top cadet team was extremely close, with cadets from 676 Air Cadets taking the top spot this year, followed by 3005 Army Cadets and 2843 Army Cadets.   The vast majority of cadets put in some really competitive times and good runs to also take overall top spots in C-1 and C-2.   

In the overall competition, some excellent finishes were also put in by Richard Lay on C-3 and Roger Macleod on C-4, who led a strong group of finishers on our most difficult course.

Unfortunately, two control flags went missing right at the beginning of the event, when they were spirited away by some mystery interloper.  They were quickly replaced when discovered. Apologies for any disruption this may have caused the competitors.  Anyone effected on C-1 was given credit for the missing control.

Lots of thanks to all the helpers, who made this event possible - John and Sara (Registration), Marie (Set-Up, Starts and Control Pick-Up) Leigh and Scott (Sport- Ident Results), and Tobi and Roger (Control pick-up)
