The sprint starting corridor went from the long driveway of the Huberman property into the wilderness.  In this group of starters were Lori Huberman, Jay Hennigan WB6RDV and Dale Hunt WB6BYU.

Leading the second group of starters up the corridor was Volodymyr Gniedov, who went on to win the M21 category.

This is Nicolai Mejevoi, a former Soviet competitor who now lives in Illinois and has competed on ARDF Team USA.  He was fastest in M40 on this day.

On the way to USA third place in M50 is Scott Moore KF6IKO.

Taking a bearing on his way out the sprint starting corridor is Yurii Tagotin UT4UXB, who took second place overall in M70 category.

Sprint awards were presented Friday afternoon.  Posing behind the Ukrainian flag after receiving their medals in M21 category are Volodymyr Gniedov (first place), Csaba Tiszttarto (third) and Kostiantyn Zolochevskyi (second).

Dale Hunt WB6BYU won USA second place in M50 category.

These M60 category winners were Nick Roethe DF1FO (Region 2 second place), Nahzib Mukhitov (overall first) and Jay Hennigan WB6RDV (USA first).

Every evening except Saturday, many of the attendees gathered for a "Dutch treat" supper.  The original plan on Friday was to meet at a local Mexican restaurant, but our large group could not be accommodated, so we ended up at Chili's.
