Annual Turkey-O, Sunday November 4th, 2018
Highland Forest County Park, Fabius

Open to the public for individuals, families, or groups

Instruction for beginners: Noon to 1 PM

We'll be teaching basic map reading skill and how to use a compass to follow a direction in the woods. Orienteering is a sport involving use of map & compass to navigate the forest on foot. Orienteering is good for walkers as well as those who like to run in the woods.

Two courses to try:

1. A 90 minute long Score event, with a mass start at 1 PM for all ability levels. You can run as a group or as an individual.
2. A sprint/novice course to warm up on.

Fee: $8.00 per color map (groups can share maps), $5 for Club members. Water and snacks included.

Where to find us: The start/registration area is at Valley Camp, straight down the main camp road about halfway to the south end of the park. The road is rough but parking is available near Valley Camp. Follow orange-and-white signs to registration.

Event held rain or shine. Large groups of 8 or more people should email sxf36@hotmail.com with their group size so we can be sure to have enough maps.
