This is a free introduction to orienteering for people who would like to try it.
Club members may also compete on the courses for the usual registration fee.

The String Course is for young children. They follow a "string", (in this case colorful surveyer's tape), around a short course near the registration area. Miniature control flags are at the locations marked on their simplified map. Stickers are at each flag to put on the map as they find them. No charge for the String Course.   

From the center of Woburn on Route 38, Main Street, head south onto Pleasant Street. A Mobil gas station, then the public library will be on your right. After 1 tenth of a mile, at an intersection with a traffic light, bear left onto Arlington Road. Follow Arlington Road to the parking lot at the south end of the pond. Parking is also available along Arlington Road.
