2022 Volunteer of the Year

Last Updated: Monday, 06 February 2023 14:16

Stephen Holloway (Illawarra-Kareelah Orienteers) has made orienteering visible in the general community in the Illawarra region.  He has been paramount in initiating and implementing hands-on workshops at Wollongong and Thirroul libraries to attract newcomers.  These successful 2-hr workshops offer the public a chance to experience orienteering instruction via a video then a hands-on demo course, followed by a course in the nearby local area.  Stephen also supports local schools with their orienteering programs and is an invaluable and pro-active club member.

The Volunteer of the Year Award is presented to a member/s recognised for meritorious service to the sport of orienteering in NSW.
