Welcome to the Wednesday Eastern Series - Park and Street orienteering in Melbourne's east all year round.
Latest News
Warralong
Friday, 14 June 2013
Nonstop rain all day and into the evening meant attendances were going to be low, which was a pity because Dennis set a great course and Warralong is a terrific map. A hardy group of 44 gathered at Diamond Village shops, and set out into a persistent drizzle. Dennis had placed lots of high points within easy reach, making the first decision pretty tough. I was drawn out to 19 via 2 and went on a southern loop, but would have been better to head north and east.
It was all about quality not quantity, with Bryan winning the A course ahead of Simon and Colin, who all cleaned up the course. Bruce won B despite returning late, his margin over Reg and David enough to stay on top. Steven was a clear winner on C over Ewen and Hamish, while Phil, fresh from his round Australia adventure, took out PW ahead of Len. Pat's third was her best result as she pipped Lyn by a point.
Let's hope for drier weather next week at Koonung Heights!
