Summer Saturdays 1: Behind the Uni

  • Main Ridge Park 15 University Dr Campbelltown, NSW, 2560 Australia (map)

Southern Highlands Orienteers (SHOO) is proud to bring orienteering to the suburbs and parks of the Macarthur. Summer Saturdays are a great way to learn orienteering close to home, or to pack some fast-paced competitive orienteering into your weekend. Oh, and for this event, residents of Macarthur Heights and Macarthur Gardens can participate for free.

We open our Summer Saturdays on a new map - right in the heart of things at WSU Campbelltown.

Assembly location and time
The assembly is at Main Ridge Park on University Drive. There will be red and white orienteering directional signs out to guide you into the assembly. Just park nearby and come to the registration desk.

Event registration is from 8:00am. Event briefing (particularly important for new orienteers) is at 8.30am). You can start your run any time between 8:30am and 10:30am (it's a good idea to plan using your map).

Courses and cost
We have the following courses available:

  • Short line course (approx 2km), good for kids and beginners

  • “Score” course: You have 45 minutes to get to as many checkpoints as you can - the most points in the shortest time wins!

Costs:

  • Adults: $12 for an Orienteering NSW member, $14 for a non-member

  • Family and group concessions available.

DM us if you have any questions, or see the full event flyer.
