Up North Orienteers invite the public to come try orienteering at the Portsmouth Urban Forestry Center on Saturday, October 1st.
Orienteering is a sport that involves navigating between points using a map and compass. Think of it as treasure hunting in the woods if you like. It is easy to learn and experienced orienteers will be on hand at the Urban Forestry Center to help newcomers learn the basics and try their first course.
There will be free parking, refreshments, and indoor restrooms. Loaner compasses will be available. Scouts and other groups are welcome!
