Sprint at Fort St. Clair in Eaton, OH. I wrote this on Saturday:
Courses by Jon Rauschenbach. A really nice event with some minor weather-caused inconveniences: I had two closed roads on the drive to Eaton, then two minor closures *in* Eaton. Plus, the park was closed. The park said they wouldn't open the gates, but we were free to run the event from the exit area parking lot. This meant a 1km walk to the start, and back from the finish. So everyone was taking 2 dibbers and 2 maps and they planned to just do two courses then walk back to download. We decided to leave the clear and check at the parking area, but after 2 people forgot and had to walk the 1km back, we just decided to just carry the computer, the printer milk crate, and 3 batteries to the event center. I didn't mention we needed batteries because the power was out. I found out my cheap woods backpack can carry the monster two battery assembly without ripping, and we split up the load so it wasn't a terrible burden. Everything was out of the woods 3 1/2 hours ago and as I type this the severe thunderstorms are hitting the park. So---it was awesome.

I've gotten several books about
DIY Drones. If I can get my nephew interested, I'm gonna try to make one that takes low-level ortho photos of parks for orienteering.
