TWIN PEAK 2012 - PROUD TO BE AN MDOCer!
It was such a well organised and planned event on a superb area (amongst the best in the country...used at the best time of year) that there were more than a few comments from competitors that it should have been used for the BOC individual this year. (I’m not sure why Trevor is thanking us with the amount of work he has done along with the planners and other key MDOC workers...we know who you are) I was just happy to be part of one of the small teams.
The fact that the hardcore MDOC workers were still working quietly, unselfishly and tirelessly away both in the marquee, around the back of the hired equipment van, and in the car parks allowing other MDOC helpers and competitors to enjoy the event to its conclusion was so much appreciated by all concerned....there is always so much work to do right up until the very end (and it will still be going on now and for the next few days!)
I am not sure I have heard quite so many words of praise from competitors at a event before in long while. I did not <image002.jpg>hear a single complaint and there are usually some. (Mind you have not been on Nopesport yet and if anyone is going to find something to whinge about it’s <image007.jpg>often on there!) <image009.jpg>
Those tables with the spotless blue and white checked cloths with competitors with happy faces having pots of tea in the sun shine in a farmyard did it for me...I just had to sit at one with a cup of tea in a white china cup!....And that chap at the prize giving who did his very best to make us all, whatever age, feel so young and healthy again!

...And MDOC were not without our winners.
Those of you who were at the Twin Peak event this weekend will probably be aware of the favourable comments from competitors. Once again we managed to put on a very high quality event which was much appreciated by our customers – the orienteering competitors.
None of this would be possible without the hard work and dedication of those who worked tirelessly to ensure that everything went well. An event of this size is dependent on many people working together as one team. This weekend you – the team - demonstrated how well this teamwork can take place and I would like to thank you all for the expertise and dedication that you showed.
Keep up the good work. We have another event at Lyme Park next Thursday.
Regards
Trevor Roberts
