A busy and lively night in the Domain. We were too busy to notice how far away you had to park. Sorry if you had to do half a course before you started. Thanks very much to Jennifer Trinick and Tim Renton for their work in preparing the event for tonight.- Well done. We used a couple of new ideas – two controls at the busiest control sites so you don’t have to wait too long to punch – and Jen set up a hageby. The results look like hardly anyone did it but what actually happened was they were too tired to put up a result. And I had put the string at the bottom so if they were crawling at the time they could still reach!!!
REMEMBER – the night event at Ambury Park this weekend (Saturday 5th). Access along Ambury Rd to the Ambury Park headquarters. Book with the ARC (3662000 /2) to stay the night too. Darkness is arriving earlier (very sad) so the first starts will be by about 8:30pm, may be even earlier for any youngsters. Remember to get fresh batteries for your torches. I forgot last time and was on my third torch by the time I finished. (I’ve bought new batteries and a new torch!!). There are bbqs in the area we start, so why not come along a bit early and enjoy a picnic in the park – it really is a lovely area, especially so at sunset. Also remember that there are PRIZES. These will be spot prizes so you have a chance of winning if you come along – it doesn’t matter how fast you go. (The farmer says he’ll turn electric fences off so no nasty surprises and the cattle will be in a paddock beyond our courses.) The main two prizes are a head lamp – a classy one (Black Diamond) – from Bivouac in Newmarket and a dinner for two at Thai Torbay Restaurant (and that will be a classy meal too – see the results pages on the AOC web site to see some meal options). We thank both Thai Torbay Restaurant and Bivouac Newmarket for their support of the Summer Series orienteering. Please support our sponsors.
NEXT WEEK: We have our event on THURSDAY (10th). This event is on a private farm – Self’s Farm off Tidal Rd in Papatoetoe, situated on a delightful little volcanic cone with a crater lake and all. We are going to use our electronic timing system for something a bit different. For those who own them, please bring your e-card. For those that don’t have one we’ll loan you one. This system times you from the start to the finish and at every control and at the end we give you a printout showing exactly how you did on each leg. No cheating though – last year we caught a few out who missed some controls – fancy trying that – you might get away with this using a clip card but not with electronic timing. It’s great fun – and what we use in the forest all the time.
This is the second to last of the summer series park events for the season – sad for some and a relief for others!!!! Do come along to the last events before we are plunged into autumn with the loss of daylight saving.
A point to remember for both the night event at Ambury on Saturday and the Self’s Farm event next Thursday is that they are both on working farms and therefore all courses will either cross fences or pass through gates, and there will be animals present – do remember you must leave all gates as you find them, if you are climbing a gate it must be at the hinge end, if climbing a fence it must be at one of the major posts and you must do all you can to not frighten the animals. This way we will cause no damage to the farmer’s property and will be welcome back next time.
