This weekend my father and I set up an orienteering course at a girl scout camporee which was held at Hibernia.  We had 112 new people come and try out the sport of orienteering.  Everybody finished and they all said it was there favorite event of the day.  Even had some girls come and say they wanted to keep doing it so we gave them some info on the club.  Overall i would call it a nice step in spreading the word about orienteering.

Great job, this is exactly what is needed to attract new juniors to the sport
