The Northern Tablelands Orienteering Twilight Series commences today Wednesday, February 8 at the Armidale Arboretum. A set of four shorter, fun events, the Twilight Series is held in areas around Armidale on consecutive Wednesday evenings in February all commencing between 5.30 and 6.30pm.
The Series is a great opportunity for families and/or children to experience orienteering or for club members to get in a bit of extra training before the main season commences in March.
If you are new to orienteering and would like to give it a try please come along and enjoy our cooler summer weather, meet some of the club members and have a go. Orienteering is a low cost sport with little equipment needed and only relatively small participation fees. All you need is comfortable clothing, a watch, sturdy footwear and a hat if it is a warm day.
