Waggaroos Orienteering local Summer MapRun series and Bush events

Waggaroos is an orienteering club located in Wagga Wagga. It offers regular local events in bush and urban environments. During the summer months the Club focuses on urban/street events in Wagga Wagga. These events are structured so competitors use their mobile phones to register control sites and amass points. You can run the course any time after the Map has been released. Visit the club's web site for more information. During the cooler months, its focus is on bush events on maps located in and around Wagga and some that are a 45minute drive from Wagga. Orienteering is a sport that combines outdoor adventure with map reading and navigational skills. It involves navigating through the bush, parks, or streets with the aid of a specially produced map and an orienteering compass, with the aim being to locate checkpoints (controls) on various natural and man-made features along the way, such as a boulder, track junction, bench seat or streetlamp. New members are welcomed at all events with courses for all levels of experience will be available for all members of the family to enjoy.
