LOST Orienteers Western Australia is a thriving sports club located in Perth, Australia. The club is passionate about orienteering and its members can often be found in the control circle, whether it's in urban events, the bush, or even on mountain bikes. LOST members are active in all aspects of orienteering, from participating in events to setting up and organising them.
While LOST club members primarily reside in the western suburbs or inner city areas of Perth, the club welcomes participants from all locations across the city. The club has a strong sense of community and its members stay connected through regular social events, a Facebook group, a club group email list, and a column in the O Xpress, which is the OWA Magazine. Information about events and club socials is advertised across all these platforms.
At events, keep an eye out for the LOST club flag as it serves as a meeting point for members to chat and enjoy a picnic lunch in the bush after the run. Club shirts are also available for purchase, with options for both orienteering shirts and casual wear. If you're interested in obtaining a club shirt, simply reach out to the club convenors who can provide cost details, available options, and stock information.
The LOST club has dedicated individuals who ensure the smooth operation of the club. The convenor, Anthea Feaver, is the go-to person for any questions about the club or orienteering in general. Rosemary Kullmann serves as the social convenor and is responsible for organising fun social engagements throughout the year.
LOST events are made possible by the efforts of event organisers, setters, and volunteers. The club welcomes offers of help, whether it's in event setting, towing duties, or on-the-day roles like instruction and control collection. If you're interested in learning how the MEOS event entry system works, Rosalie McCauley, an event administration expert, would love to hear from you.
Upcoming events organised by LOST include the MetrO 1 in Koondoola Bushland on November 11, 2023, and the Albany Town Centre event on November 12, 2023. For a full list of upcoming events, it is recommended to visit the club's website or social media platforms.
LOST Orienteers Western Australia is proud to acknowledge the Noongar people, the Traditional and continuing Custodians of the land on which they gather to enjoy their sport. The club pays respect to the Elders past and present.
