2nd Vasa Orienteering Festival in Changchun
Event date 17 , 2011 – 19 , 2011
Location Jingyuetan Park
CHANGCHUN - After last year's successful first edition, Changchun Municipal Government and Vasa Nordic Ways organise the second international Orienteering Festival at the beautiful Jingyuetan Park on 17/18 September 2011. Orienteering is a popular global sport that requires not only speed, but also solid navigational skills. Participants need to find their way to various control points inside the forest using maps and compass. Apart from competitions for individuals in several age categories, there will also be a student five-patrols race.
Worth mentioning is also the cooperation with the Jilin Province Education Bureau, which allows the implementation of an orienteering educational programme, open to the public and in particular to the students at Jilin University.
