SUMMARY:Basic & Intermediate Land Navigation
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: Two separate classes! Take the class best suited to your needs or sign up for both to save a bit of money. FREE FOR KIDS WITH A PAYING ADULT!!! \n\nBasic Land Navigation – Introduction to Orienteering: \nOn Saturday we’ll spend a few hours in the classroom covering the basics of land navigation and orienteering: how to read a map and use a compass to find your way\, plus a whole bunch of background information on the history of cartography\, navigating and alternative methods to avoid getting lost! \nAfter lunch we’ll head out to a local park and use our newly learned skills to find several pre-positioned items. It’ll be a fun\, family-friendly scavenger hunt to instill confidence and reinforce analog methods of getting around. \nIntermediate Land Navigation – Advantageous Use of Terrain for the Marksman:\nSunday’s Intermediate class will focus on applying military fundamentals to the world around us. We’ll dive deeper into analyzing maps and references available to civilians through open sources. Morning classroom instruction followed by a strategic planning exercise. \nAfter lunch\, attendees will participate in a guided walkthrough of a hilly and wooded local park doing tactical terrain identification and analysis. \n  \nRequired Equipment: Please plan to bring the following: \n\nClothing appropriate for the weather and comfortable shoes or boots\nPen/Pencil\n\nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\nCompass (If you have a compass\, bring it!
