Despite the very light mist that continued for most of the event, that didn't keep anyone away. Over 110 maps were handed out to about 130 participants.

Congratulations to Johanna & Tapio Karras for coming out on top of the 60-minute category and to Jason Reed in the 90-minute category.

Many people stayed to socialize and enjoy the hot apple cider and potluck after the courses closed.

Also, our heartfelt congratulations to Graham Brew for winning the 2024 BAOC Service Award. Thanks for all you have done for the club.
