VENUE: Thomas H Halton Park, Macquarie Drive, Croudace Bay

EVENT DESCRIPTION:
Orienteering is a sport that challenges both the body and the mind. The aim is to use a special orienteering map to navigate your way around a course and visit marked check points along the way. This year we have changed the event format.

The Champs will now be contested in a more beginner friendly Park environment. Navigation and compass skills will still be required. All individuals/teams complete TWO courses.

1. Age Division Line Course (straight line distance of 1.2 km to 3 km from start to finish)
2. Open Score Course (30 minute time limit)

COST: $12 per competitor. This fee does NOT include transport to/from the venue. The entry fee does cover maps, control cards, etc.

DURATION: The duration of the event will depend upon the number of competitors. Typically, the event will begin with a safety briefing at 10 am and conclude by 2:30 pm

FACILITIES : Toilets are provided.
