Junior Camp 2023

Saturday 1st - Monday 3rd July

Swan Valley Adventure Centre

Our popular junior camp will be held over two days and two nights at the start of the July School holidays. Led by a team of OWA coaches, it will provide activities on site and training on a bush map, as well as attending the OWA event in Walyunga National Park.

We are looking for young people who enjoy orienteering, want to learn more about it and have a fun time with other young people.

• The camp will start at 10.00am Saturday 1^st July 2023 at Swan Valley Adventure Centre, Middle Swan, and finish at 10.45am on Monday 3^rd July.
• Activities will include participation in the OWA event in Walyunga National Park, in Bullsbrook, on morning of Sunday 2^nd July. The juniors will be transported to and from the event by bus. Parents are encouraged to join us at this event.
• Parents are invited to a morning tea and the State Team announcement at Swan Valley Adventure Centre on Monday 3^rd July at 10:00am. The camp will finish after the morning tea.
• The camp is subsidised by OWA so will only cost $100 per junior orienteer. This includes accommodation, meals and activities.
• The camp is open to anyone aged from 9 to 19 years who has participated in at least one bush event or Navdash event in addition to any school events and is a OWA full member. Younger juniors need to be able to complete an E Course without assistance. Casual members will be charged the cost of junior membership ($40) in addition to camp fees, i.e. you will become a junior member of OWA.
