Orienteering 1:11 [5] 0.07 km (16:54 / km)
Prince William Forest junior camp: indoor ultra-sprint
We woke up on Sunday morning to howling winds and lack of electricity in the cabins. After much deliberation, we decided it was unsafe to send people out into the woods and postponed this morning's local event, thus effectively scrapping the relay. Later on it was decided to cancel orienteering for the day entirely, as it was simply unsafe in the woods.
We got a little bit of fun in anyway. I got everyone to draw their own map of the hall where we were all hanging out. Then I designed a course and had everyone copy it onto their map. After that people swapped maps so that no one ran with his or her own. Then Valerie and Tori made this super-awesome by pulling out the e-punch equipment and running SI for the event. I started people with 15 second intervals, and chaos ensued! Hannah dominated, winning the race by a whole 7 seconds over me and Kseniya. It was nice to salvage the day in at least this one small way.
Apparently when people were retrieving controls later, at least two controls were found with trees having fallen on top of them. So the decision to cancel the rest of the camp was absolutely the correct one.
