Orienteering Course | Nissequogue River State Park
Orienteering Course Saturday, March 21, 2026, 11:00 AM Nissequogue River State Park 799 Saint Johnland Road, Kings Park, NY 11754 Led by Glen Malings, Long Island Orienteering Club Afraid you’re relying too much on GPS? Want to practice your map reading skills? Orienteering is like a treasure hunt in the woods, using a map to find controls (box shaped flags) hanging from trees. We’ll give instructions and then you can go out alone or with friends. The course should take about an hour, if you don’t get lost. Glen, who heads the Long Island Orienteering Club, started to get temporarily lost, when he was 12, by riding east on his bike. He always made it back home. This event is free, but advance registration is required. Meeting location will be emailed to registrants. After you have registered, but before the event, we will email you to confirm your attendance and provide more detailed information. If you are unable to attend, please contact us at 516-922-1028 or info@northshorelandalliance.org, as this will help us register those on the waiting list.
