Sept. 8- 10: Up North Orienteers' Pawtuckaway Camping Weekend (Nottingham, NH) is just around the corner. This event is not to be missed!

Great Brook Farm (Sept. 17, 2023) in Carlisle is one of the great locations to orienteer in MA. The rocky section brings back memories of mis-punches, the meadows provide easy running, and the transition into wood and wetlands reminds us we are in the heart of New England. The courses are set, and there's always a good turnout here. So, if able, please sign up as a volunteer for registration and download, or let us know on the day if you can help collect controls. We appreciate you: NEOC Event Volunteer Sheet (2023). This event is also the first of five events that make up the Fall 2023 Series.
