Orienteering Challenge (10:30 AM - 12:00 PM): Utilizing maps and compasses, teams navigated a pre-determined course through the park, requiring strategic planning, navigation skills, and effective communication to reach checkpoints efficiently. This was a great test of leadership and problem-solving within the teams.
