Orienteering (fun for the whole family)

ORIENTEERING (fun for the whole family)

Orienteering is an exciting outdoor activity similar to a scavenger hunt. This activity is suitable for all ages so would be great to do as a family. Participants will work in small teams and will use a basic map (no compass needed) to navigate themselves around a course with the aim to find all the markers that have been placed in various locations. The course should take between 30-60 mins.

Families can choose to stay together as a team, or form their own team. There will be a prize for the team who gets the most correct answers in the quickest time. A clipboard, pen, answer grid and a map will be provided for each group. An icy pole will be offered to all the kids at the completion of the event, while the adults will be offered a kombucha. 

There are many benefits to Orienteering including: 

- Compete against themselves as well as others. 

- Learn how to read a map. 

- Solve navigation problems. 

- Exercise the brain as well as the body. 

- Be in the outdoors.

- Be in nature. 

- Work as part of a team.
