Junior Camp

The girls attended the Junior Camp, held in Canberra with around 60 others (14yrs +). Participants had the choice to stay on site at Alivio Tourist Park (only 6km from our house) which our girls were keen for. 

Over 6 days the kids ran 10 orienteering sessions organised by elite and ex-elite Canberra orienteers with some sort of talk or arm chair session every evening. 

Andy and Rob ran one of the day's training courses out at Boboyan Divide on the hottest day. No one got lost, bitten by a snake or heat stroke! The only issue to arise was Al getting a flat tyre, successfully changing it only to lock her keys in the car!! 

From all reports the kids enjoyed all the training sessions despite the HOT conditions; left the camp motivated to improve and had lots of fun (and drama) socialising.
