Summer Series Results from Auckland Domain
February 11, 2003

Results from courses: One   Two   Three   Four   Score

Was that the biggest event of the Summer Series for this season? There were 300 maps prepared and only 30 left at the end. There are lots of pairs and groups go out and there are those that don’t record their results so we believe that there may have been as many as 350 people at the event. We are delighted that orienteering can attract that many to come along to an event. A beautiful night and a friendly park helped make it a great evening. It was lovely to see people picnicking in the vicinity afterwards.

Thanks very much to Ian Sydenham for the setting of the courses for tonight. He suggested having a score course and this was enjoyed by a number of competitors. There were comments that course two was a testing one – glad you enjoyed it!

There is plenty more orienteering for the really keen. On Thursday (13th ) evening (5:30) there is an event at Mountfort Park (on Weymouth Rd), Manurewa. This is the first of the Counties Manukau clubs summer series. There will be more coming up and we’ll let you know about them next week. This Sunday (16th ) there is a park event at Totara Park, organised again by Counties Manukau. Starts at 10am from the car park at the end of Wairere Rd (come off the southern motorway at the botanical gardens – Manurewa). There are premarked maps and as it is a secondary schools event there will be lots of people there. There is a free swimming pool to cool off in afterwards.

Next week the Summer Series event moves to WEDNESDAY (the 19th). Don’t come a day early! We’re at Self’s Farm off Tidal Rd in Papatoetoe. Tidal Rd starts very close to the point where Massey Rd crosses the SW motorway. This map is on a privately owned farm and so is chance to get a look at one of Auckland’s volcanic craters that you’d not normally see. The view from the far end of the map is across an inlet of the Manukau Harbour to the airport. If we have a fine day there will be a great sunset for those that stay till then. As the area is volcanic it is a bit rough under foot in places so you might like to ensure you have good footwear. There is a lake in the middle of the map; what has the water in the lake been used for? No prizes but we’ll be interested to hear what you think next week. We’ll give the answer to those who haven’t guessed right.

The first forest event of the year will be on Sunday the 23rd in Woodhill Forest. It is on the Pot Luck map – enter the forest on Rimmer Rd (a couple of kms before you get to Helensville turnoff on SH16). Follow the signs to the parking area. This event is the first use of the electronic timing system in Auckland so that will add more fun to the event. We want to give the system a good test before our very important Nationals at Easter so mark this event in your calendar now. It will also be good training for those competing in the Nationals as the area is not dissimilar to the Nationals maps. New orienteers, this would be a great event for you to try as your first forest event as it will be a low key event, (except for those of us trying to ensure the timing system runs without a hitch!!)

Congratulations to Tim Renton (Auckland Club member) who has just been selected in the New Zealand Junior Team to go to JWOC (Junior World Orienteering Champs) in Estonia in July. Well done Tim. The team, this year, consists of 4 boys and 1 girl. All the others in the team are ‘veterans’, having been to the event in Spain last July.

On the evening of March the 8th there is the Katoa Po event. NZ’s most well known night orienteering event (held near Taupo). This is a relay event for club teams of 5 or 7. North West club members please contact Bert to get in a team and the Auckland Club members should please contact Joanna or Alistair on 5755695, or reply to this email NOW. If you are not in a club and would like to have a go at this really fun event please call us and we’ll get you signed up into the Auckland Club and into a team. Camp the night and then on the Sunday there is the first of the Central Districts OY events – a quality event on a challenging map. A great weekend of orienteering and a fun time too.
