Welcome
Welcome to the Albury Wodonga Orienteering Club. The aim of the club is to provide an opportunity for members of all ages to compete in the growing sport of orienteering.
Coming Events
SUNDAY 22ND AUGUST, WAGGAROOS EVENT AT LIVINGSTONE NP NEAR WAGGA
Please
note this is not an interclub challenge but its a great spot for orienteering
with courses to suit all.If you would like to attend, contact the organiser,
Alex Davey, alexdavey@internode.on.net.
SUNDAY 29TH AUGUST, MOUNTAIN BIKE ORIENTEERING
AT CHILTERN
The
event starts at the swimming pool in Main St Chiltern with a mass start
at 10.30am. The format is 'pick your own route' to get as many marks as
you can in either 2 hours (long course) or 1.5 hours (medium course).
Probably best to get there about 10am so you can plan your route. Electronic
timing will be used. Entry fee $5 members, $10 non members plus $3 for
electronic timing 'stick' hire.
The forest is looking great with all the wattles in bloom and its a beautiful
place to ride at this time of year. Enquiries ring Steve on 60214181.
Winter is Here!
Due to the popularity of the Wednesday evening winter runs and social get togethers last year, we are holding another series this year from May to November. The activities comprise running/walking/mountainbiking (various grades from easy to more difficult) followed by a light supper of soup, tea and coffee. See the bottom of the Events page for further details.
