Scott Pleban at World Champs

QOC member Scott Pleban will be competing this week at the World Ski-O Championships in Kazakhstan (that's him on the left with the rest of the US team, photo courtesy of Eddie Bergeron). The competition starts with the sprint on Tuesday and ends on Sunday with the long distance event. There are a number of places online at which you could follow the competition but probably the best one at which to keep track of US team doings is US team member Alex Jospe's blog.

Addie Nolan Named to Junior Team

The 2013 U.S. Orienteering Junior Standing Team has been announced and QOC junior member Addie Nolan has made the team.

“She will represent our club very well on the national level and we should all be very proud of her. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with her, and pushing her to an even higher level so that she can hopefully travel to the Junior World Orienteer Championships in the future and run for not only for the U.S., but also for QOC,” said QOC junior coach David Onkst.

Congratulations Addie!
