Well, what a turnout! 107 competitors and with so many groups that must be getting on for 130 people who enjoyed Marcus White's parkland and urban courses.
Everyone looked like they had lots of fun out there. Personally I'd like to thank the two little girls who set up a drinks station out on the Light Green course between controls 13 and 14!
Plot your route on Routegadget be the map geek.
Staunton Country Park in two weeks time for the second event in the series. Hope to see you there!
Happy orienteering!

Organiser's Comments
What a great morning at Fleming Park. It was lovely to see so many newcomers to the sport. Pete's Facebook advert seems to have worked very well!
The Yellow course proved very popular with the familes, where the children had great fun punching the controls.
The weather made a great difference - the rain didn't start until the last starter.
I was pleased that the only person needing use of the First Aid kit was me - I sliced a finger open helping put up the tent!
Hopefully we will see lots of you again at our next event in 2 weeks time. Details will be on the SOC website.
