Event Write-Up

By Steve Haas (Registration — South Bay)

About 170 people came out to Calero in almost perfect weather (a little cool when we were setting up, and a little warm by the time the courses closed) for our annual event at this Santa Clara County Park south of San Jose. Everyone seemed to have a good time on the courses designed by Theo Verhoeven.

Other than the required porta-potty being delivered to the wrong park entrance (which SCC staff efficiently corrected), and the otherwise excellent snack area temporarily running out of paper cups (both of which were the event director's fault), everything seemed to run pretty smoothly.

The results are below.

Thank you to all the volunteers (apologies if I missed anyone):

  • Maps: Bob Cooley, who also drove water out to all six water stops on Saturday afternoon
  • Course-setting for all 7 courses (and putting out most of the controls): Theo Verhoeven
  • Assistance with putting out controls early Sunday morning: Werner Haag, Stephen Granger-Bevan
  • Vetting: Misha Kreslavsky, Stephen Granger-Bevan
  • Website: Chuck Spalding
  • Registration: Ev and Jean Beuerman
  • Beginner clinics: Peter Graube
  • E-punch: Tony Pinkham, Jeff Lanam
  • Snacks: Sharon Evans, Dan Vannatter
  • Starts: Dan Greene, Ann Marie Cody, Graham Brew, Sharon Evans, Sue Want
  • Control pick-up: Deron van Hoff, Matej Šebo, Lubo Šebo, Vicki Woolworth, Peter Graube, Nikolai Chunin, Steve Harrison

A huge thank you to the people on this list who didn't run a course, but came out just to help!

And a big thanks to the Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Department for allowing us to use their facilities. Thanks especially to Bill Burr, Gina Ellis, and Denise Zarate.
