New Year = Renew Membership! Don't forget you need to renew your membership and sign the waiver before heading out. Come early with $10 if you haven't renewed yet. (And as always, it's only $5 if you're new to orienteering.)

Description
Schedule
18:20 Introduction to Orienteering for Beginners

20:00 Course closure, participants must report to the finish by course closure time.

There will be a beginner and advanced course. The beginner course will be a simple point-to-point course and the advanced course will be similar but not identical. The advanced course will allow you to skip one control in a certain "goats" type section.

Participants must carry a whistle. You will need to cross Granville Avenue and possibly run along roads without sidewalks if you are doing the advanced course.
Parking/Start/Finish Locations:
As located on map, just off Granville Avenue.
Post-Event Dining:
TBD, I won't be attending. Maybe Tokyo Joe's or Pho Lan?
