A Memorable Call
For our special Call of the Wild meet, we had great weather and a nice sized crowd at the start. A total of 24 adults and 15 kids took part in the mini-Street Challenge format, including a great many newcomers who never heard of or tried orienteering before. For the 10 questions, scores ranged between 7 and 10 points...probably with just a little confusion over the zoo question. There was also a noisy crane within that view, which some opted to mark as the heron, but in reality it was the bald eagle, also known as "yodee" by the native peoples of the Yukon. Times ranged from a low of 23:05 and went well over an hour, as everyone took the course at their desired pace. Some stopped to learn a few extra things along the way, like at the Anne Frank Memorial.

Some new dates to remember
We've made a few changes to our calendar for the year, specifically in July and August. You can see the calendar via the link on the upper right of the blog (year 2011), but to be more specific:
July 23-34 - our planned two day "B" meet in Idaho City (hopefully)
August 21 - a regular club meet on Sunday, at Bear Basin in McCall
Lastly, for those who might have missed the Call of the Wild announcement, here's a quick link to it:
Call of the Wild! coming up on February 12th.
