SUMMARY:Chestnut Ridge Learn and Practice
DESCRIPTION:Join us on August 7th to learn orienteering! \nHave you been wishing you knew how to do orienteering?  We have the perfect event for you.  Come learn how to do orienteering with us in August. \nWe are offering a special Learn & Practice session at Chestnut Ridge Park on Thursday\, August 7\, 2025.  Registration is free for Buffalo Orienteering Club members and $5.00 for non-members.  This event will be limited to 30 participants to be sure that each person can fully benefit from the instruction.  All participants should register online\, including club members; limited on-site registration will be dependent on availability.  Registered participants should arrive between 5:00 pm and 5:30 pm\, with the event beginning at 5:30 pm. \nEnter the park and drive by the Casino toward shelter #8.  (We will have signs starting at the Casino.) Cross over the bridge after passing shelter 8 and look for the Orienteering signs on your right. The start is located at coordinates 42°43’00.9″N\, 78°44’24.6″W.  Here is a link to a Google Map. \n Details \n Procedures: When you arrive\, volunteers will check your name on the list and assign you to a group for the instruction.  Instruction will begin at 5:30.  We will be using the 6-control permanent course for this Learn and Practice.  The instructor will introduce you to orienteering maps and symbols and to a very rudimentary explanation of the compass.  Then the instructor will walk with the group to the first two controls\, giving guidance along the way.  The instructor will then let the individuals in the group navigate to the last four controls on their own.  Participants can find these controls as individuals or in a group. \n Equipment:  Wear weather-appropriate clothing that is suitable for hiking.  While participants do not need to bring anything to the event\, a base-plate compass would be helpful because the club has very few to loan out.  The map for the event will be given to participants when they sign in. \nThis is a great opportunity to learn how to read an orienteering map and navigate through a course.  Come out and see what you can do! \n
