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 on an unfamiliar course in bush terrain, parkland or urban areas.  

If you like a physical and mental challenge while exploring the outdoors, orienteering is the sport for you!

Event: SSS7
Location: Pelican
Weather: Perfect
Organisation: The Orr family (and Kathy G)
Entries: 84

Round 7 of the summer street series was contested on the almost flat Lake Macquarie suburb of Pelican. A pleasant area to run around, one that consists of two halves, one north and one south of the airstrip. Many did one side or the other, the southern end being preferred while the faster competitors attempted to do both with varying degrees of success.

Kim van Netten and Steven Todkill have both given themselves a little break over their respective competitors, both winning again yesterday.

Thanks to the Orr family for a very pleasant afternoon of orienteering.
