2025 Blossom Rally Results
Results from the Blossom Rally held on July 25, 2025. Having to shuffle Rally of the Voyageurs in April delayed Blossom from May to July.
For this rally we had two legs with beginner, novice and expert instructions for each leg. If you were running for ORRC points you had to run both legs and enter as an ORRC competitor. The SNATR portion was just leg B but you could run leg A just for fun.
These are the results from Leg A. In the beginner class some only ran leg A and there were no awards for that.

That was a fun rally, trying to connect some of the more interesting roads in Oxford County. Thank you to the experts who came to support the ORRC and the novices and beginners who came for a fun drive in the beauty of a southern Ontario summer.
Congratulations to O’Shannahan & Ames who came to spectate then decided to run and took first in beginner.
There was some discussion about a timing error on B3 and we adjusted the results. However, further review showed the competitor had missed a pause instruction so the timing was correct. Luckily the change did not affect the finishing order.
Thank you to everyone who made the rally possible. Roger and Teresa for route work and Doug for the green crew. Our checkpoints were Christina, Frank, Tristan, Jeff & Cheryl and Teresa, Roger did control opening and the last checkpoint.
The next navigational event is Automapic on October 4. Murray has been working hard on it and while not much is available for details right now we will get the page updated. Don’t forget that Black Bear on August 9 needs some workers and we’re going karting on Aug. 13.
See you at an event soon.
