What better way to spend a Sunday morning than in the picturesque town of Kiama navigating your way around an orienteering course, enjoying a free post event sausage and capping it off with a swim in one of the beautiful beaches or a walk to the famous blowhole. Meet at Coronation Park, Manning Street, Kiama. Details of the event are in Eventor.
Pre-entries are encouraged. First timers and those who are not members of a club need to first register in Eventor then follow the event entry quick guide. That way you won’t need to queue up to enter on the day, just turn up, ask for a map and start your course.
Last week’s event at Windang proved very popular. It was good to see so many families competing. The spread of ages amongst competitors ranged from 5 years to 80 years of age – proof that orienteering truly is a sport for all ages. A special shout out goes to Gemma and Alex who successfully made it around the medium course in a wheel chair with Dermot the Dog in tow.
Newcomers note: if you have attended one or both events in the Illawarra Summer Series you will be in the running for a free membership of Illawarra Kareelah Orienteers for 2025. A good reason for turning up to the final two events. If, at the end of your run you would like to discuss your route choices or any issues you may have had on your course feel free to speak to any of the members volunteering on the day.
