Dear Orienteers: Next month's "Why Just Run" weekend event will see us hosting Scouts, Pathfinders and Cadets at our annual Spring Ramble, celebrating the return of warm weather and more orienteering. Although Deas Island may be flat, the growth of vegetation will provide challenges for all levels. We have booked the "Fisher's Meadow Picnic Shelter" for the use of participants; be sure to bring your lunch. Timing will use the Sport ID system. We will have individual timing sticks for rent for a nominal $2.00
