Thursday, 16 February 2012

The final event of the Macedon Ranges Summer Series was held at Riddells Creek on 15-02-2012. A big attendance and presentations completed a very successful night. Central Highlands Orienteering Club (CHOC) put on a great series with six races with both forest and parkland maps.

Lois Ewels commented "the series was successful with growing numbers and the club is looking forward to their State Series event on 22 April using the Macedon map”.

Series Winners:

Course A – Jeremy Hirst

Course B- Mark Hennesey

Course C- Finn De Lacy

A happy crowd after their Riddells run.

Macedon Ranges Street-O commences at Gisborne

Tuesday, 6 December 2011

19 competitors enjoyed a cool and dry run around Gisborne on a demanding course set by Mark Hennessy. We welcomed some new faces across the fruit bowl at the completion of the event.

With the assembly area at almost the lowest point on the map there is little choice but to start with a climb and finish with a downhill run. The pine trees on the north-east of the map provided their usual challenge to negotiate the paths and locate the controls.

Course A      1. Warwick Davis
                      2. Jeremy Hirst
                      3. Geoff Caddick
                      4. Jon Sutcliffe
