Greenbelt

White, yellow and orange course results are below as usual. The (advanced) Stumble Bumble courses consist of Beige (O windows), Brown (1), Mint (2), Green (3), Pink (3), Red (4) and Blue (5). In addition, all Bumble results are combined together in the Advanced listing. The last two courses shown (Brown 2 and Green 2) were NJROTC-specific.

The Bumble The second annual Stumble Bumble was a day of great fun for everyone, despite some stumbling and bumbling. Thankfully we had wonderful weather. While it caused some excess mud, it was REALLY nice not to have to be bundled up like the Michelin Man and hanging in the car to stay warm.

Congratulations to the top male and female finishers on the Bumble: Jon Torrance and Peggy Dickison. Their special prize (shown below) will surely be among their most treasured awards!

(What is a Bumble you ask? He’s the Abominable Snow Monster from the 1964 holiday classic Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Why has he become the mascot for this event? Well, he’s one of Heidi’s favorites and last year Ted Good suggested we call it the Stumble Bumble so we did. Your homework in preparation for next year’s Bumble is to be sure to watch it in December.)

We were pleased to host so many of our regular QOC members and also welcome some scout groups attending for the first time including BSA Troop 1325, BSA Troop 235, and GSA Troop 1706. Loudon, Herndon and Huntington NJROTC also came out to do specially designed courses in preparation for their trip to the NJROTC Nationals later this month.

Bumble Prize Of course, days of enjoying the woods, laughing together, and taking photos with the Bumble are only made possible with the support and dedication of our many wonderful club volunteers. Kudos to David Onkst for designing really fun courses and giving us a chance to experience Greenbelt in a different way. Many, many thanks to Valerie Meyer and Greg Lennon for managing the on-line registration, getting the maps prepared and printed, working with the e-punch system to enter and calculate the results of a complicated race. And, much gratitude to our day-of volunteers. Jeff, Fran and Mike Haskell arrived ultra-early to put out water and help with setting up. Ben Roberts arrived early too and helped Mike and Jeff put out controls on the white and yellow courses. Bob Turbyfill chipped in and took care of some miscellaneous tasks. Suzanne Izzo, Steve and Abigail Camp, Jinny Szabo and Jack Seabrook (who came all the way from the Eastern Shore!) handled the registration check-in beautifully, greeting folks and answering questions. Fran Haskell and Abigail Camp also took on the crazy task of putting the Bumble together for the photo ops! E-punch registration and clean-up was skillfully managed by Valerie Meyer and Amy Louden with special help from Mary Sneickus and Shirley Tan. Our new orienteers received excellent instruction from Pat McNeilly, John Blaisdell and Amber Tomas. Ad-hoc tasks were done by Max Ahmed, Diana and Nicole Aleksievea, Laura and Mihai (Jr.) Sirbu. Adam Szabo joined his wife Jinny in cleaning up, while son Andrew dutifully handed out “Reformed Bumble” stickers to competitors. Greg Lennon served as our photographer snapping cool pics of attendees the Bumble - check out our event album here on Flickr. We ended the day with control pick-up by Nadim Ahmed, Alex Bishop, Dan Quinn, Mike and Ryan Stasiowski, and Howie Weinstein. The last chore of organizing the e-punch boxes, wrapping up the control flags, and general clean-up was done with the added assistance of Amy Louden, Greg Lennon, Peggy Dickison and Kathleen Lennon. It really does take a village! So again many thanks to all of those who answered the call to help out.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at next week’s Manassas event and next year’s Bumble!
