Skiles Test Nature Park

We had some pretty decent February weather for our day at Skiles Test Nature Park.  It was enticing enough to overfill the parking lot for nearly the duration of the meet and draw runners from Ohio and Minnesota.  The meet director Brenda Blacklock thanks Aidan Minto for designing some interesting courses that made good use of a small park.  Ben Hart and Stephanie Ross (OCIN), André Karpov (MNOC), and Mike Garrison, Aidan and Rob Minto (ICO) helped with control pickup.

Detatiled splits can be found on Attackpoint (https://www.attackpoint.org/eventdetail.jsp/event_40344); looking at them is a good way to check out which of your choices were best.

**There were issues with start and finish punches that affected a couple of teams, should your result be unexpectedly missing or long.
