Welcome from Orienteering Canada
Welcome from Orienteering Canada
On behalf of Orienteering Canada, welcome to the 2015 Maritime Orienteering Festival, including the Canadian Orienteering Championships. It’s a thrill to be orienteering in 3 provinces over the span of a week, and especially exciting to be orienteering in PEI where we hope to develop a greater orienteering presence.
There is a lot going on this week in terms of races and other activities (Sass Peepre Jr Training Camp, AGM, Conference sessions, various dinners) and I encourage you to take part in as much as you can.
This event is being organized by a small but mighty group of orienteers, mostly from Orienteering New Brunswick (ONB) and the Orienteering Association of Nova Scotia (OANS) and also officials from Alberta. We do like to see orienteers from other provinces helping to put on the Canadian Champs. That multi-club involvements helps to ensure that we are able to host the Canadian Champs in all areas of the country, where we have both big and small orienteering clubs.
An enormous amount of volunteer effort is making these orienteering events happen. Please go out of your way to thank as many volunteers as possible this week. And please pitch in when you can. Any offers to help with control pick-up, refreshment table monitoring, announcing, site assembly and dis-assembly would be most welcome by the organizing committee.
On behalf of the Board and Staff of Orienteering Canada, we appreciate you coming to the 2015 Maritime Orienteering Festival. As a small token of our appreciation for your dedication to spend your time and your money to come to the COCs, you received a water bottle at registration. Thank you – we sincerely appreciate your commitment to being here.
See you in the woods,
Anne Teutsch
Orienteering Canada President
