CITY – BAY PROMOTIONAL EVENT SUNDAY 1st NOVEMBER
Despite the hot conditions (36
degrees) thirty eight hardy souls ventured out to try one of the four
orienteering courses offered at North Adelaide. It was great to see the family
groups and pairs of friends who went out together. 
Wlling helpers
Because of
the heat, the emphasis was on enjoyment and not competition, which is reflected
in some of the longer times, where time was taken out for an ice-cream or
coffee on the way round, not to mention taking in the sights and attractions of
North Adelaide. The times recorded are for personal curiosity and are not a
reflection on anyone’s orienteering skill or athletic ability. Link to Results
Given the
weather, I was very pleased with the turn out and would like to thank the
participants and all of the helpers who made the day possible.
Special
mention is made of sponsor, Paddy Pallin who helped to pay for the flyers that went in
the City – bay “goodie bags” and who is a long term supporter of orienteering
in South Australia. Keep Paddy Pallin in
mind for your adventure clothing and equipment.
Special
thanks to Bob Smith of Snap Printing, Hilton, for setting the courses, printing
the maps and putting out and collecting controls. Other helpers were Muriel
& Stuart Lane, Carol Such, Jenny Casanova, Jenny Kennedy and Jennie Bourne.
Thank you! 
Dressed for the Occasion
If you
enjoyed the experience, tell your family and friends. We would love to see you
all out at the Summer Series events on Friday nights starting on Friday 27
November at Bonython Park.
