It’s time for you adventure racers to start thinking about who you will invite to try orienteering at this year’s National Orienteering Day meets, September 13th at Southwestway Park, and September 14th at the Orchard School.  These meets are intended for beginner orienteers, so bring your families, invite your co-workers, tell your friends.

If you’ve never tried orienteering before…

There will be a clinic offered before each of the meets to teach you to use a compass and read the maps.  Bring a compass if you have one, or you can borrow one of ours.  No need to register, just show up and we’ll help you get started.  Wear comfortable clothes and shoes for hiking.  The cost is $10 for a non-member and you can take a small group along for that one price, or buy additional maps for $2 each.

Registration: 9:30

Orienteering clinic: 9:45AM

Start:  10AM -Noon
