Big Foot stalwart Andrew Lumsden has been honoured with the President's Award for 2018 for decades of outstanding service to orienteering in NSW.

Andrew started in orienteering in the early 1970s in Victoria and quickly became one of Australia’s most promising juniors.

Since then he has worked countless hours unpaid on orienteering over the past 30 years including controlling major carnivals, mapping, negotiating landowner access and creating the framework of technical systems that ensures the quality of our events.

A new award this year is Volunteer of the Year. This went to Garingal couple John and Liz Bulman who readily assist at school regional carnivals, school programs, Space Racing, the SOS and promotional events.
