Itinerary:

From the Edmonton Overlanders Orienteeing Club:
Orienteering involves using a special detailed map to choose and follow the best route from one control (checkpoint) to the next. 'Best' route depends on YOU; it could be the shortest, or flattest, or smoothest or driest, or least prickly or the most certain to find the control easily. It all depends on skill level and physical ability and personal preference.

The Edmonton Overlanders Orienteeing Club has been around since 1979! They put on weekly events during their spring-fall season. They setup the waypoints, print maps and show you how it's done if you're new to the activity. This EOC event is to simply attend their regularly scheduled Wednesday night event.

It'll be dark and it'll be busy, so please look for my yellow EOC hat when you arrive. We will split up into 2-3 teams depending on speed. The cost for a map is $7. Be sure to bring flashlights! Also, this night event is a special mass start, so you MUST be there on time. We will not wait for you. Some people have trouble finding Terwillegar Park. Please allow yourself enough time to find it, and have my cell number with you just in case.

Required Items to Bring:
Money for maps ($7)
Weather appropriate clothing
Pen to write down waypoint keywords
Flashlight
