Thanks to Mick Kavur for his efforts in providing a challenging street event at Kotara. This was Micks first foray into the world of event planning and he did a great job testing our brains with a puzzle of climb versus points. It was a very hot afternoon but even so there was a great turn out of participants.
Welcome to Newcastle Orienteering Club
Orienteering is a competitive or non-competitive recreational activity in which participants use a detailed map (and usually a compass) to navigate between checkpoints (known as “controls”) along an unfamiliar course. If you like a mental and physical challenge and exploring the outdoors, orienteering is the sport for you!
