Are you good at figuring out which way to go? Maybe you should give orienteering a try.

The Central New York Orienteering Club has its annual Turkey-O, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. Nov. 24 at Highland Forest in Fabius.

Orienteering is a combination of cross-country running/quick walking and trying to find the quickest and easiest ways to reach the finish line.

Competitors compete on trails and through the woods, using detailed maps and compasses. They must stop and register at "control stations" along the way.

The competition is open and all levels of orienteers -- from beginners to experts. For more, see the club's website at cnyo.us.orienteering.org.
