SCOTTISH NIGHT CHAMPIONSHIPS / TWIN – PLANNER’S REPORT

The late enforced switch of venue meant there was a very short lead time to the event. This was made event shorter by the withdrawal of part of the woodland at Firpark with less than 2 weeks to go. That having been said, I have always thought that with SI, Firpark would make an excellent Night area –although I had expected it to include at least some of the fields.

Thanks to everyone who told me and the rest of the Tinto Team that they had enjoyed their courses – that is what makes planning worth while. A big thank you to John Biggar for stepping in at the last minute to control the event. I have worked with John quite a few times and each has been a pleasure. Thanks also to Ross for resizing the map, Jackie, Paul, Jason, Gerry, Trish and Dick for bringing in the controls and to all the Tinto Team for rallying round.

SOL7 / TINTO TWIN DAY EVENT – PLANNERS’ REPORT

From all the positive comments on the day we think we got most of it right. Altarstone was a delight to plan in - red squirrel, sika deer, pine martin, golden eagle, goshawk, to name but a few of the wildlife encountered on our many trips to the forest. Talking to people at the finish they said they found it tough but fair and enjoyable. 

May we take this opportunity to thank Ross for controlling and John Biggar for controlling on the day, also Blair and Terry for invaluable advice. Thanks to Marcella for going that bit extra and running all the versions of W60L that we put in front of her and lastly Marjory for putting up with us both.
