Orienteering Team
Coach: Vacant
Orienteering trains cadets how to conduct accurate, high speed land navigation. The training focuses on how to read a map, use a compass and estimate distances in order to find points in different terrain on a course. We use that knowledge at our competitions as we attempt to beat the time of our competitors by combining accurate compass and map skills with speed. The Huntingtown High School Orienteering team has competed in the National Championship for several consecutive years and expects to continue going to National level competitions.
