By Vicki Woolworth (Regional Event Coordinator — East Bay)
I hope you all had as much fun as I did exploring this small but ever-changing park by the bay. Daniel Šebo met the challenge of re-mapping where needed and setting creative courses. Yes, the hill is growing, vegetation has been eliminated, and paths are now meandering in different ways than before.
With many BAOCers off at Mt Pinos, it's hard to predict who will maintain a lead in the Summer Series, but it looks like Yurii Konovalenko and Rex Winterbottom are still dueling it out in the top five, and we'll see what happens when Lori Huberman and Anastasiya Gordeeva get to compete in the same race. It's too bad we don't expect our Australian visitor Jenny Casanova to be here the whole summer.
It was great to have a lot of newcomers. We hope you had a good time.
Thanks to all who helped. It was great to have a dedicated core group of volunteers:
Beginner's clinics: Shura Krechetov and Werner Haag
Registration: Sarah Williams and Steve Haas
Starts: Nick Corsano, Daniel Šebo, Matej Šebo, Ellen Smith
E-punch: Western Race Services (Jay and Scott Hann) with help from Jeff Lanam
Course design, control setting: Daniel Šebo
Vetting: Matej Šebo, Ellen Smith
Control pickup, cleanup, and schlepping down the hill: Daniel Šebo, Matej Šebo, Ellen Smith, Steve Haas, Jason Reed
I'd like to thank park supervisor Lisa Brodtmann for her help in getting the permit, and to the East Bay Regional Parks staffers who kept the park in good order while we were there.
I'd also like to thank Bike Walk San Leandro and Cherry City Cyclists, especially Vicky Ma and Donna Chang, for helping promote the event on Facebook, Nextdoor, and other media.
Hope I didn't miss anyone—questions or comments welcome.

Summer Series Points
The methodology of determining Summer Series points is explained here. In particular, note that group/team entries do not earn points, and 21-year-old male is assumed if we don't have your birth year ("(M21)" below). (Also keep in mind that BAOC membership is required [by the final event] for the Series cumulative awards [but not to earn points].)
