ORIENTEERING TEAM

The orienteering team tracks and seeks out flags hidden in the bush.  The points are set in advance by the coordinator and the grid references are recorded.  At briefing, the OC gives the coordinates to the competitors, who must then plot them on their map and seek them out, stamping their timecard at each flag.  The team that completes the competition the fastest, and with the most stamps, wins the competition.  In some cases, points are different for each flag as some are more difficult to seek out.  In this case, the team commander must decide which route is best for his/her team.  The Rangers of 2799 hold the 2012 Gold Medal for Men's and Women's Teams!
