This is a 3 day training camp being conducted by two visiting Swedish 2013 JWOC representatives. It is aimed at all orienteers who normally compete on Hard and Moderate courses and will cover a variety of exercises over the three days.
The camp is being based at the Fred Rogers Recreational Camp at Storm King Dam, 10 mins south east of Stanthorpe. Live-in dormitory accommodation will be available for $50 per person, self-catering, with use of the kitchen and facilities. However, for those wanting other accommodation, there are plenty of other options available in and around Stanthorpe.
The first exercise, which is optional, will be a map walk at Cascades at 10.30am on Saturday 25th January. The final exercise will be Monday morning, finishing up around lunch time.
The Granite Belt has some of our best maps so it will be a great opportunity to improve your skills ahead of the Easter carnival in NSW.
Stanthorpe is generally cooler and less humid than the coastal areas and the adjacent Storm King Dam will be a good place to cool off after the training sessions.
Anyone wishing to register their interest in the camp can register online or email Felicity on fcrosato@bigpond.com
Coaching and all maps will be available free for OQ members.
