Orienteering is a sport of navigation. The goal is to use a map and compass to locate control points that are scattered throughout an area. Orienteering can be done as a competitive race or an activity to explore a new area. We will work as a team to complete a standard type course to find control points throughout the park. As we work on completing the course, we will learn about the basics of orienteering such as learning how to read a map, how to use a compass, and using the two together to figure out where we need to go.

Meet at the Oxbow Bend Activity Area, Younger Pavilion.  This free event requires participants to be ages 11-13.  Click here register by 1 PM on Tuesday April 26.
