Note
A little sad that NAOC sprint registrations are clearly lagging the other events. These sprints are fantastic, and you don't need to "sprint" to enjoy this orienteering. They are true sprints, but real orienteering, too. What is better than that?

Survived the Labor Day workcamp at the Water Gap. Two days, morning to night, driven by commandant Overbaugh.
Has there been an event where the course setter and the director of course setting have done more forest maintenance? I moved the trees; he dispersed the jungle foliage. If the terrain resisted us, we pushed harder; if the forest blustered, we subjugated it. We worked for the good of the people, in the silence of the wilderness. Officialdom may disavow us; society misunderstands us. Who will sing the songs memorializing these labors? Who will venerate the nameless orienteering perfectionist?
