Orienteering Raleigh NC

Backwoods Orienteering Klub, founded November 15, 1978 sponsors events and teaches orienteering in the North Carolina piedmont, around Raleigh, NC.

We invite you to try orienteering with us. Everyone is welcome at all our events. We always offer beginning, intermediate, advanced and expert courses (routes through the woods) at every Regular event.

Sustainability Scavenger Hunt

A fun event is coming up on Thursday, April 12 that may interest some of you! In the UNC Sustainability Scavenger Hunt, participants navigate around UNC with a map showing the locations of sustainability initiatives. Visit as many checkpoints as you can in one hour, and then return to the assembly area for food and prizes! This is almost just like a score-o orienteering meet (and there will even be control flags at checkpoint locations), except that it has an environmental theme and there are prizes and food involved.

The Sustainability Office needs to know how many maps to print, so please RSVP by April 4. Entry is free, and you may participate as a team or an individual. Click here for more information and to RSVP.

Cheers,

Holly Kuestner
