Orienteering NSW has received a $10,000 grant from the NSW government to map and/or upgrade maps at six Sport & Recreation centres.
The centres are: Narrabeen (Sydney Academy of Sport), Broken Bay, Milson Island, Myuna Bay, Lake Ainsworth and Point Wolstencroft.
The grant was the maximum possible and in return ONSW will be working with Sport & Rec to develop maps, courses and programs so centre staff can deliver orienteering to the many thousands of children and adults who visit them each year.
Many people recall their childhood experience of orienteering as an enjoyable one, and this grant will allow us to present our sport in the best possible light to new audiences.
Sports Minister The Hon. Graham Annesley, who attended our Sydney Summer Series finale and presentations in March, confirmed the grant recently.
ONSW thanks the minister, and promotions director Barbara Hill for her work in preparing and submitting the grant proposal.
