Black Crow! It may not be the first for the year but I believe that it could be a first for our JSquad. A very experienced and talented Junior took off in the first session of the ToDay last Saturday and was immediately in all sorts of bother. Could not relate the map to the terrain or get into gear at all! Then all became clear. The map had two sides and he was looking at the wrong side. Well done, another one for the experience bank!
(All BC’s will remain anonymous this year until the presentations.)

SS1 Mt. Baw Baw: Entries are now open via Eventor. Normal entries close midnight 1st March 2014.
A Big Weekend of orienteering in NE Victoria is coming up on 22-23 March.
Saturday on Rowdy Flat at Yackandandah. Courses set for this event are set by the original mapper. And Sunday back to Kangaroo Crossing near Eldorado
Both events are National Orienteering League events (and Sunday is a World Ranking Event) so the best Australian orienteers will be there. But careful note has been taken by the course setters of the needs of the younger and older competitors. There will be good orienteering for everyone!
The Closing Date is approaching fast: 8th March. (We need this earlier-than-usual date to organise things for the NOL and WRE so we’re hoping that everyone else can also get organised early!). Entries via Eventor. There will be only limited opportunities for entering on the day, so please plan ahead and do your entries online.
Come and Try It. As advised last week, we will be running two CATI events on Saturday 1st. and Saturday 8th. March. They will be held on Terry Davidson’s new Guy’s Hill Road map. Julie Flynn is setting two Newcomer courses and Terry is setting one longer, more challenging course.
Everyone is welcome to have a run but I would like the primary thrust to be helping out and talking to people about orienteering. I also look forward to our JSquad people helping to look after newcomers out in the forest – as they did last year – good training and a chance for Bendigo to show off our very relented kids (in their JSquad tops, of course weather permitting).
Centre (LUBAC), Retreat Road Flora Hill. More details later.
Coming Events. Saturday 1 March.
Come and Try It, Day 1
Map: Guy’s Hill Road (on the eastern side of One Tree Hill)
Organiser: Peter Creely et al
Course Setters: Julie Flynn and Terry Davidson
Start: 10.00 am to 12.00 Noon
Courses: Three courses: Cse. 1 Easy; Cse 2 Moderate (both for Newcomers); Cse. 3 Difficult.
If Bendigo members come out, it is expected that you give priority to assisting Newcomers before your own run. You are most welcome to have a run (I recommend Course 3) but a lot of work has been put in to allow new people to have an enjoyable experience in orienteering: please remember this and put in a bit of time for your club!
Directions: Travel out Condon Street/Strathfieldsaye Road. Approximately 2 kms past the Reservoir Hotel (Kennington Reservoir) turn right into Guy’s Hill Road (O sign). After 1.8 kms (at the end of the bush/beginning of the housing estate on the left), turn left into Brentwood Drive (O sign) and follow the O signs.
NOTE THAT IN THE EVENT OF A DAY OF TOTAL FIRE BAN IN THE NORTHERN COUNTRY REGION ANY EVENT SCHEDULED FOR THAT DAY WILL BE CANCELLED.
Next Bulletin 26 February
