Orienteering at PineTree - May 18th

Our introdiction to orienteering intro went quite well. It was the first time Troop 26 used the course at PineTree, so it was new for all of us. Orienteering is harder than it seems, so there were times when the boys were dead-on course between two points, and other times when we were a bit (!) off the mark. We will hopefully do some short orienteering sessions on future camping trips so the boys can hone their skills more. It's not as easy as it first seems, but is a life-long skill that can come in very handy.

Thanks to the Scouts who came out. And a big thanks to Mr. Appelegate who made it all happen! --> SEE PHOTOS
