Oreinteering with the whole family!

We had a great time out at Detweiler Park, north of Peoria on Saturday.  All six of us did the White, beginners, course.  Tammy and I used the O-event to teach the kids planning and organization skills.  We transferred our points to our map, planned our route, and took off.  Each one of our TEAM had the responsibility of finding one of the 7 points. It turned out that one of the most technically difficult points were inadvertently placed onto the "White-Beginner" course.  We looked for it and could not find it.  We decided to let it go, and continue the course. I believe that all of us, from  Mom and Dad down to little Nathan (6yrs old) all learned something about ourselves and team-work.
