    Will there be a regular yellow course this Saturday? Or is it all Relays?

    Thanks.

    No, there will be no separate White/Yellow course, however, similar difficulty course is part of relay. Why not to try something new or different?! Team up with your fellows and join us for the relay and summer picnic.

    I think you should offer a point advantage to newbies, to encourage more experienced runners to want to have a new orienteer on their team.  Newbie could be anyone who has only a few events and is still running yellow or white.  It would make new club members feel wanted when more experienced people seek them out for their team.
    Meanwhile, looking forward to Saturday, it's been a tough week at work.

    All three courses are designed to make navigation easy enough as well keeping distance at lower level. Easy course basically is White/Yellow, Medium course still White/Yellow with only few Orange level checkpoints and a simple forking like A or B in a small area, and a Long course which will require some navigation through the woods. It's also a good chance to try something different or advance to a higher level. Everyone is welcome, especially new club members - it's a good opportunity to get to know other members and be a part of team.

    And don't forget, it's asummer picnic. Bring some food to share with your fellow orienteers.

    See you all tomorrow.
