Intercollegiate/Interscholastic Rules and Regulations See the appropriate sections of the USOF Rules for Orienteering. Fund Raising for the U.S. Junior Team In 2006 and 2007, we raffled tickets to win a T-shirt quilt similar to the one pictured at right. Funds raised benefit the Junior Team. The winners of previous quilts are Suzanne Armstrong and Donna Fluegel. See Suzanne's quilt. If you can help the junior team by making a t-shirt quilt for the next raffle winner, contact Janet Porter. T-shirts can be provided by the winner. Current fund raising efforts involve selling food at A-meets to hungry orienteers. All Juniors and their families, in fact anyone interested in supporting the effort, are encouraged to volunteer at the Junior Concession Fund Raisers. Please contact Janet if you are interested in helping.
