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.
