TRy oriEnteering

How do I get started?

The best way to try orienteering is to come out to a local event and try it. Newcomers are always welcome.  Just show up and dress for the weather, including good footwear ( e.g runners, trail or hiking shoes).
No previous experience or special equipment necessary. 
Events are great for both individuals and families, for people out for recreation, or those looking for some  challenge.
