This is taken from Captain Communication #1 for Untamed New England, and is open to anyone (not just Untamed New England racers) . . .
The 2nd place team at the 2009 Untamed New England race last year, Team Kinetic of Quebec, are hosting a free orienteering clinic in preparation for 2010 Untamed New England on Saturday July 10th.
Team Kinetic at the 2009 Untamed New England -- finished a strong 2nd place and earned a free trip to the World Championships!:
The emphasis will be on route finding and practical navigation skills that are keys to success at Untamed New England. The main topo maps for the clinic will be 1:50,000 scale. The location is in the Eastern Townships, QC (exact location to be announced in late June).
Team Kinetic raced at the World Championships in Portugal after a strong 2nd place finish at New England last year, so don’t miss this chance to practice and learn with some of the best in the sport! The best part: it’s totally free! All you must bring is your food and drink for the day. Also, bring your compass!
