This meet was a regular score-o for thirty minutes, then for the final fifteen competitors the event transformed into a game of cat and mouse. Participants could choose to remove a control and bring it back to the start for bonus points. However, orienteers could also choose to try to catch those bringing back controls for a bonus as well.
Cory Smith won the men’s division with 400 points. Jen Jolliff won the women’s division, scoring 330 points. The Shearer family won the heavily contested team division with 380 points.
Thanks to everyone who helped with setup and take down for the meet.
