The G.M.O.C.

The Green Mountain Orienteering Club is a group of individuals and families interested in promoting the sport of orienteering.   Orienteering involves the use of a map and compass to find your way through a course in the woods. At every control point there is a marker and a punch to prove you were there. Newcomers are always welcome and instruction is provided. Just come to any event scheduled or contact:
