Welcome to Orienteering NSW

Orienteering is a sport that challenges both the body and the mind. It's also loads of fun!

The aim is to use a special orienteering map to navigate your way around a course and visit marked check points along the way. You choose a course that suits your age and experience and proceed at your own pace: walk, jog or run. It is a race but you decide if you want to just race yourself or be the next world champion! The course may take you through urban areas, parks, schools, farmland or forests.

Events are conducted weekly across NSW and beginners are welcome at all events.

Want to enter an event? You can see what's on by looking at the Coming Events at left or by going to the Event Calendar. Some events are enter on the day - you just turn up and register at the start. Other events require pre-entry and for that you need to know about (and register with) Eventor - read the Eventor FAQ.


The Hut gets a spruce-up

Our tireless Friends of the Hut have given Belanglo House a thorough going over at the weekend.

A massive thanks to Doug and Keith Jay, Dave Lotty, Kevin Curby and Peter Howe - who all practised safe distancing while doing a mountain of work.

The new water tank is programmed for delivery just after Easter.

Peter reports some of the projects accomplished were:

* Completed the excavation for the proposed Water Tank by all. One and a half tonnes of crushed metal was delivered and compacted for the base.

* Cleared the drain blockage from the bathroom sink - the less said about this task the better! A new "S" Bend replaced the original bend and a new three-way union installed to join the existing pipes together.

* New duck boards were installed on the bathroom floor. A 12m trench was dug to extend the drain from the bathroom and new pipe
installed.

* A wire screen was installed in front of the woodshed. Hopefully this will deter people who have been helping themselves to the supplies.

* Daffodil bulbs excavated from the the area for the new tank have been planted in front of the outhouse. This should look nice in the in the coming months.
