postheadericon WARA Commitment to Child Safe Organisation

WARA is actioning the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.

The WA Rogaining Association (WARA) has created a subcommittee tasked with implementation of the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations. WARA is committed to safety of all its members and our approach to keeping children and young people safe is an extension of that.

So far, the subcommittee has completed a self-assessment of WARA's existing child safe practices, attended workshops, and met with relevant people within the Department of Communities' Child Protection Unit, the Department of Local Government Sport and Culture and SportWest to understand, navigate and start to action the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.

postheadericon What is Rogaining?

Rogaining is the sport of long distance cross-country navigation in which teams of two to five members visit as many checkpoints as possible in twenty-four hours. Teams travel entirely on foot, navigating by map and compass between checkpoints in terrain that varies from open farmland to hilly forest. A central base camp provides hot meals throughout the event and teams may return at any time to eat, rest or sleep. Teams travel at their own pace and anyone from children to grandparents can experience the personal satisfaction that comes from cross-country navigation at their own level of competition and comfort.

postheadericon The *Inns and Outs* 2024 Novelty Rogaine

3 November, Perth Metro, Wembley

Nick says that there are two things that he always looks for in a "metro" rogaine. This event has plenty of each. This is an event with a theme.

He also says that competitors will be able to use a phone app (pwMapApp) to check their progress. So exciting!

  • The app is just for fun and very experimental... Nick says that the "real" scoring will use pencil and paper.
  • There are seventy amazing controls, scattered across the Western Suburbs.
  • There are even two "lazy loops" around two lakes -- easy points for amblers.
  • Other controls are well spread, well drawn and well-balanced thanks to Brian.
  • We have all had a lot of fun setting and vetting.We do so hope that you will join us at the event -- to enjoy the amazing locations that we have found.

MAPS HANDED OUT AT 12 noon, START 1pm, FINISH 5pm

Lots of love,
from Aeglira
... for the Inns and Outs event team

Nick Lethbridge, Brian Austin
