Stu Sharack, Event Director

A warm rain the night before melted away the 4 inch snows that fell days prior to this Spring event. A little squishy mud and a few white slushy patches were certainly no hindrance to the 57 participants who attended this beginner event on the Connecticut coast. White, yellow, and orange courses were available in addition to a Visit Most course combining the yellow and orange. An early finisher complimented me on an accurately set course which relieved my anxieties for the remainder of the day. And so all was well as everyone seemed to enjoy the day. Everyone made it to the finish line by the open beach and water. I hope they took a breather and absorbed the scenic view before leaving. More helpers than expected showed up which made the event run smoothly.

Thanks to Paul and Sue Pearson, Jon Howes, Paul Rashaw, Donna Klucewicz, Diane Lucas and Linda Marsdale, and Joan Hill.
