I think we can all agree that Lake Crawford 2022 was a bit on the cold side (editor's note: a bit !?!). The weather contributed to a number of no-shows. However, for those running the courses, it wasn’t too bad. For those of us manning the check-in location, a nice roaring fire would have been […]
From all of us - Thank You Sandy! The day was bright and clear though a bit chilly in the early morning..... We had 70 starts with 160 participants. Due to a mix up by the park rangers, we ended up sharing the shelter with a disc golf tournament. Fortunately their time table and ours […]
From the Meet Director - Walter Siegenthaler: What a wonderful day for orienteering at Kings Mountain National Military Park! Sunshine most of the day with a high of 70 degrees. We had a great turnout with a total of 110 starts; but the great turnout also created some problems. We exceeded the maximum number of […]
Spotted on the Green Course........ The last meet of the 21/22 season ended on a high note. Weather was superb and the woods were still clear. Morrow Mountain is really well suited to orienteering with a variety of terrain features to choose from and a trail network that can contribute to route choices. This meet […]
Here are the results from the November 5th meet at KMSP-LY Volunteers to help set up, manage, bring in controls after a meet, or help in other ways are always needed & appreciated! The club is in critical need of experienced people to plan and execute events. Please consider putting your talents to good use […]
Felicitations to everyone who braved the slightly chilly, slightly rainy weather to enjoy some fantastic orienteering on courses designed by a nationally-recognized expert, Mr. Jim Hall. Jim's talents were on full display along with his tireless passion for the sport and we are all grateful for his efforts. There were quite a few "no-shows" which […]
Here are the results from the event.
We finally got McDowell in for our 22/23 season after having to cancel in October due to weather. January turned out fine though. Chilly in the early morning but about perfect for midday. We had a new course designer for this meet, Sergei Zhyk. There were a lot of good comments about his courses and […]
The morning started cold but turned out to be a nice day for orienteering. There were a number of no-shows, though, which may have had to do with the weather. We are seeing some very good times on the Red course with Sergei Zhyk burning up the woods with a 53:08 minute run, followed by […]
United we stand! Another perfect day for orienteering, sunny with a high of about 70 degrees! The March meet at Kings Mountain National Military Park seems to be very popular, last year we totally shammed up the parking lot, so for this year we had to limit the number of map sales as well as […]
Spotted on the Green Course Dan Davis put on another stellar event in spite of the elements! Just like spring - the weather was in like a lion and out like a (fill in appropriate animal here). Thanks to all who came out and enjoyed another splendid day tromping through the woods. As the last […]
Congratulations and many thanks to all who came out to a gorgeous fall day in Kings Mountain State Park. The club is eternally grateful for use of the park and wishes to acknowledge the cooperation of South Carolina State Parks. We're also grateful to all the volunteers who made this event possible. Without the kindness […]
BigFoot spotted on the Green Course! Dan Davis, the indefatigable club president, has once again organized and managed a highly successful event in a beautiful outdoor venue right here at home! Dan has sustained this club for many decades (yep X 10's) and his contributions to the entire orienteering community are both commendable and appreciated. […]
