Our junior development squad has a new name and logo - the Bluebottles - as they prepare for their annual pre-Christmas camp.
The squad is the gateway to the NSW Schools Team and eventually our elite National League team, the Stingers.
The Bluebottles name, logo and new T-shirt design were all driven by the junior squad which is always on the lookout for new recruits.
Squad members must be at least in Year 6, and either already doing Moderate courses or looking to move up to Moderate level (where you learn to go cross-country).
The squad is a great chance for junior orienteers to make new friends, develop their skills and travel around the state.
Camp costs are kept down by camping or staying in bunk accommodation, and everyone pitches in for food.
"We love having parents help at our camps, and we encourage them to have a go at the activities as well," said Bluebottles manager Helen O'Callaghan.
"There is a such a good, fun atmosphere in the squad and the kids have a fantastic time."
The next Bluebottles camp is from December 18-20 near Newcastle. Entries are open in Eventor.
