Following overnight rains, a beautiful spring day emerged with
sunshine and pleasant temperatures.  We had a good turnout,
including 19 students from Hamilton High School JROTC.
        Over 20 runners on brown course got to try out electronic punching,
many for the first time.
        Bob Frey and Dick Arnett hid a few transmitters in the woods, and a
few folks took their try at running through the woods with receivers,
trying to home in on the signals.
        Meanwhile, many kids and families went looking for the baskets of
plastic eggs hidden at the white course controls.  A grand time was had
by all.
