We were lucky. It's a bit risky to host an orienteering meet in the
Helderbergs in early April, but we fortunate to have day that was dry,
partly sunny, and relatively mild (about 60 degrees). A super day to run,
and to chat afterwards. The trails were still a bit muddy, but had
dried considerably from a week before when some were still raging
streams from the snow melt. Including all the members of the groups,
there were about 50 participants. Not bad for the Saturday of Easter
weekend, when the weather forecast had been for rain. Several members
of the newly-formed BKW (Berne-Knox-Westerlo) Orienteering Club, after
some training on the BKW school grounds, came out to try their hands
at a "real" orienteering course, and did quite well. Altogether, a
fine start to a fine season.
