Night-O / Search & Destroy-O 2026

Step into the woods after dark for a fast-paced orienteering adventure at Cricket Holler Boy Scout Camp. This unique Night-O / Search & Destroy-O is designed for all experience levels—first-timers, seasoned navigators, runners, hikers, families, and friends.

🧭 What Is Orienteering?
Orienteering is an outdoor navigation sport where you use a detailed map (and optionally a compass) to find checkpoints scattered across the terrain. It’s part strategy, part speed, and part exploration—a real-world treasure hunt, after dark.
