South Coast Schools Gala Day

The Inaugural South Coast Schools Gala Day was held at Croome Reserve on 22 May 2013.  Seventy two children from Kiama and Barrack Heights Public Schools got a taste of orienteering with experienced orienteers from IKO, Southern Highlands and other clubs on hand to introduce the children to the sport, and keep them on track during the day.

Some great media was generated by the Illawarra Mercury and the Mercury’s photographer has successfully captured the enthusiasm of the kids as they raced around the bush tracks and learnt about map reading and navigation.

QB111 at Belanglo – a perfect day in the forest

Well, it was not quite perfect, with a couple of minor controlling issues to deal with, but the weather couldn’t have been better.  With lots of club members on hand to help out, Day 2 of QB111 at Belanglo was another great club effort.

Here’s a few pictures from the day taken by IKO photographer Dayle Green.
