Thanks to the "hard-core", we had a fairly good turn-out despite the foul weather.

Having pre-printed courses meant competitors did not have to copy courses on to soggy maps in the rain;and biodegradable controls definately proved their worth.Thanks to them ,I did not have to trudge back to the two remotest locations in the middle of a torrential downpour.

Yes, biodegradable controls will definately be used from now on at NEOC-RI meets, especially since the only people who had trouble with them were some who forgot the old adage,"When all else fails,read the directions!"

Many thanks to:Terry Keegan-course vetting, registration, and control pickup; and Ed Bailey-S/F.
