One of the great things about orienteering is being off-trail. I see so many interesting things while running through the woods that I wouldn't just hiking on a trail! I really "see" the terrain around me now.
I've been orienteering for about 12 years and really enjoy it. I first tried it in northern CA to help with my kayak navigation skills, but enjoyed it so much that I've continued ever since with all kinds of orienteering. I especially like night courses!
Sea kayaking, hiking, camping, cycling, etc.

Hi and welcome! I agree...there's
much in our midst to invigorate the mind. Looking forward to seeing you at an event, and feel free to suggest anything that looks intriguing!
Hi Ellen- Welcome to the group.
Just a quick note to save the date -- Science Pub RVA plans to hold its first event on Tuesday, May 1st. Looking forward to meeting up
A wonderful event Saturday! Thank you for putting it together and for the instruction! I enjoyed meeting you and look forward to seeing you at the next event!
Thanks for all the hard work that went into putting together the orienteering outing. Please pass that along to the other organizers .... I KNOW that we can't begin to imagine all the behind-the-scen
es effort that went into it ..... and you guys always had a smile on your faces.
Hi Ellen,
I've been thinking about the idea of an orienteering outing for some time now. I've wanted to go out and do some whale-watching in my kayak, but have thusfar been a bit reluctant because I assume I would be out of sight of the land. If the orientiering works out well, I would like to organize a whale / dolphin watch. Great Idea !
Hi Ellen - sorry for the tardiness of this WELCOME to the Richmond Volunteers! Hope to see you at another event, or suggesting an event soon. :)
It was nice to meet you, and others....
thanks for organizing our "event".
Paddle on.
Ellen
