Camelot Rise
Thursday, 23 November 2017
It was with some relief that we came down from the hilltops of Mulgrave, onto the relatively flat terrain of Camelot Rise - flat that is, unless you venture to the western edge (which I think of as more of a cliff). With about 6 options to choose from as the first control, there was plenty of brain activity required at the start, regardless of which course you were on. There were several traps as well, with some controls looking much closer together than they were in reality. At least we had a delicious platter of fresh fruit waiting to reward our efforts - the pineapple gets yummier every week!
A course winners were Andrew, Steven and Ian; fastest on B were Bruce, Jay and Andrew. Ian, Phil and Damian were first back on C course, while I got back on D course ahead of Beverly and Kerryn. Dave scored 56 points, Barry scored 53, and Garry 51, just ahead of father daughter combo Adam and Alicia, both on 50.
This week there were no changes to the top three in each division, so we'll check back next week. See you at Waterford Valley in Rowville, venue for last year's Course Setter of the Year winner, and always a really fun map.

Where: Southern and eastern suburbs of Melbourne
When: 7:00pm Mondays; all year round
Cost: $5 per event for adults, $2 for juniors (under 21)
What to bring:
jogging/walking shoes and comfortable, light coloured clothing. Bring a
watch, a drink, and a torch for winter events (late March-mid October).
Please arrive 20-30 minutes early. This will provide time to help you register for the event and explain how to take part.
Groups (schools, scouts, sports or social) are extremely welcome,
but please contact us at least a week prior to the event so we can
ensure enough maps are printed.
In
summer (October-March), there are 4 runners courses ranging from 3.5-10 km, and a 60
minute power walkers' course. For runners the format is Scatter (visit a
designated number of controls in any order, first back wins), and for
power walkers the format is Score format (visit as many controls as you
can in the allocated time).
Enquiries: tel 0409 959 673 (Annie)
In
winter (March-October), there are 25 controls marked on the map. Choose one of two formats - a 60 minute Score course (visit as many controls as you can in the allocated time, aiming to score as many points as possible), or a "Target" course, where you aim to achieve a target score between 4 and 36 points.
Enquiries: 0409 135 020 (Debbie)
