Uringa’s 50th Anniversary Lunch
- Last Updated: Monday, 25 March 2024 11:43
Lunch at the Palace Hotel, Mortlake, on Sunday, March 3rd, saw many long term Uringans together with some newer members celebrate the club’s anniversary.
Uringa Orienteers was formed in May 1974 to share the load of supporting orienteering in southern Sydney with Kareelah Orienteering Club.
(Kareelah was founded to serve the southern Sydney suburbs in 1972 as NSW’s second orienteering club, while Bennelong Occasional Orienteers, founded in 1971, served the northern suburbs).
Dave Lotty was elected inaugural president and continued in that role to 1986 (today he continues serving the club as Treasurer).
Subsequent club presidents were Dick Ogilvie (1987-1990), Rollin Burford (1991-1992), Keith Richardson (1993-1994), Terry Murphy (1995-1998), Lisa Lampe (2000-2002), Matt Peters (2003-2007), Ron Pallas (2008-2010), Linda Sesta (2011-2016), Jim Mackay (2017-2018), Anthony Nolan (2019-present).
[Five former club presidents and the current president were present. Many of the others present are listed for one or more club officer/director/committee roles, and for a few years.]

Embargoes for 2024 & 2025 an update
- Last Updated: Monday, 18 March 2024 14:01
Map embargoes are used to make sure that our major races are fair by restricting access to map areas prior to the event.
Once an embargo is declared it is not permitted to visit or train on a map, or future map, prior to the event.
Note that it is not possible to completely embargo schools or universities for those who need to attend for school or work.
For these areas it is not permitted to train on or visit the area with an orienteering map (including a map you may have made yourself).
Current embargoes in NSW:
- Rylstone area for 2024 KB3 June Long weekend;
- 2024 Australian Orienteering Championships - Armidale area;
- 2024 Sydney City Race; and
- 2025 NOL events - Onley State Forest (Central Coast)
Details of embargoes are listed below on our website page:
Orienteering NSW - Embargoed Areas (onsw.asn.au) or see button top left hand side column of website.
