Central Park
September 16, 2001


course results: White 



Meet Director: James Browne
Course Setter: James Browne
Helpers: Nathalie Borozny, Michelle and Mike Wenz, Michelle’s friend Whitney Rufo

Another training event for newcomers was held on September 16 on a beautiful day. Six groups went out on a White course and all came back with enthusiastic comments. Which means that they found all the controls. This time I avoided hanging controls near patches of stinging nettles, which could have brought down the level of enthusiasm. The participants had the experience of finding cliffs and rootstock as well as the usual trail intersections and manmade objects. A sizeable group of adventure racers also showed up under the leadership of Doug Hershey, and did an Orange course. The idea was to improve their navigational skills and improve map reading ability. This seemed to work well, and it was a good day for everyone involved.

Helping out were the usual personnel: Nathalie Borozny, and Mike and Michelle Wenz. Michelle’s friend Whitney Rufo also helped, and the two of them may be a couple of Green course powerhouses in about 8 years when they’re 18.
