Organiser's Comments

Thank you to all of those who came to orienteer at Ampthill today. It was nice to see fellow orienteers from other local clubs and also some newcomers. I hope that you all enjoyed your run in the much changed area - we look forward to seeing how the terrain evolves over the coming years.
A big thank you to all of the WAOC helpers today, what a fantastic team!
Don't forget our next event is in October in Ely, followed by Mildenhall in November.

Planner's Comments

The recent changes to Ampthill Park to restore the Capability Brown landscapes have opened the area to a significant extent. This, along with the fact that the works are ongoing, made setting challenging courses somewhat harder. Many thanks to Neil, who had the Sisyphean task of updating the map for this event. With many of the trees in the N removed, there are now some spectacular vistas throughout the park, which competitors on all courses will have had the chance to see, should they have remained still for long enough to admire said views.

I’m glad to report that the drizzle was over well before the courses opened (as forecast), and that the courses generated some discussion of route choice, which is always (well, usually) good. Thanks to all participants, our helpers and to Jenny, for ensuring smooth running throughout.
