Northern Night Championships 

Dob Park  4 March 2006
Controllers Comments

Congratulations to all the Northern Night Champions.

Claro organised a most enjoyable event, with a good choice of venue, good planning, a large group of willing volunteers and hot soup at the end.
On a night visit to Dob Park I discovered it to be pitch black with very few lights in the area, ideal for night orienteering. A snow shower and a bright quarter moon made a significant difference though, lighting up the forest, even the start had to be delayed 12 minutes.
David created five interesting and challenging courses, in quite a confined area, worthy of the Northern Night Championships. I thoroughly enjoyed my role as Controller and many competitors expressed thanks at the Finish.

On behalf of  all the competitors I’d like to thank David, Geoffrey and Claro volunteers for organising the Championships.
