Orienteering Competition

Join us for an exciting Orienteering Competition hosted by FI School’s Class of 2026 and the FI Conservancy

 

Event Details

 Date: Thursday, August 17

Location: FI School Playground

Time: 1-4PM

What is Orienteering?

Orienteering is a sport in which participants use a map to find various locations, or “controls.”  Take an hour  to find as many controls as you can.  You can compete as an individual, or as a team (up to 3 people).  You can run the course, or walk.  All ages and ability levels are welcome.

How to Register 

To join the fun, contact Mike George at [email protected] or 585-406-1746. Register before Thursday, August 17, to pay $15 per person. Same-day registrations will be $20 per person. 

The proceeds will support the Class of 2026’s senior class trip.

Win Ice Cream Gift Certificates and More!

The top individual finisher and the top team will receive ice cream gift certificates, generously donated by Toppers. Additionally, the FI Conservancy is giving a gift bag. 

Be Prepared 

We encourage you to bring comfortable shoes and water.  Compasses are not required, but you may bring one; we have a small number that we can loan participants.  The event will be held rain or shine.
