Orienteering Print

Today, everyone competed in the orienteering challenge. Everyone got their gaiters on, wore their best shoes and got ready to go. People formed up into teams, and then had the tricky task of thinking up a team name. Then after each team chose a course to complete, they set off into the wilderness. Soon after heading out, people discovered what can only be described as a swamp, and in said swamp lay many hole-punches, and then it became apparent that wearing ones nicest Nikes may not have been the greatest plan. However, after a few snakes were fended off and some tears were shed over destroyed shoes, everyone returned with at least a slight smile on their faces. But, alas, our efforts were in vain, because one team completed all of the courses in close to record time, and we all wore our mud with pride. It was a fun afternoon out and I had a great time.
