Boojum Rock Local Meet
Stoneham, MA
September 23, 2001
Meet Director/Course Setter: Matthias Mahr
Volunteers: Abi Weeds, Boris Granovskiy, Genevieve Graves, William
Hawkins, Misha Lipatov, Ken Walker, Karen Williams
Control Pick-up: Abi Weeds, Matthias Mahr

Around 100 participants came to Boojum Rock on this partly cloudy Sunday that was very pleasant for orienteering. Course setter/meet director Matthias Mahr offered a full spectrum of courses, including a Blue course that took full advantage of the map by sending runners all the way across it 3 different times. Since the Boojum Rock map was last field checked in 1991, Matthias felt necessary to add map corrections in areas through which courses passed. As a result, participants who showed up to the meet site early were told to wait to register since "the competition area was still being mapped." Overall, the meet went very well, and most racers, particularly several families' dogs that returned from the woods covered in fragments of local flora, seemed to have a great time on the courses. Thank you very much, Matthias, for a very enjoyable day of orienteering!
