In the absence of official presentation functions - and with the latest covid outbreak hitting Sydney - we'll be rolling out news of our 2020 major award winners bit by bit.First up is Club of the Year and our winner is a new club; an important geographical link between clubs in Coffs Harbour and Newcastle.
Since attracting more than 200 people to their first event in 2019, the HOGs have shown drive and determination to plant orienteering firmly as a sport in the Port Macquarie region.
The club is media-savvy, spreading the word about orienteering widely and successfully. Families are a big proportion of attendees which bodes well for the future.
With three new urban maps unveiled in 2020, full SI capability already, and State League events on the radar for 2021, this is a club with significant achievements already and a great future ahead.
ONSW President Robyn Pallas was on hand at their event at Wayne Richards Park on Sunday to present the trophy to president Matt Bell and his hard-working committee.
Congratulations Hastings Orienteering Group!
