  • Mark Salas Oriented Orienteering with Lots of Fun Surprises
    The Wild Times August 2018 ROC helpline: (585) 310-4ROC (4762) Web site: roc.us.orienteering.org Find us on Facebook and on Meetup.com The official newsletter of the Rochester (NY) Orienteering Club ROC President's Corner... by Doug Hall "A volunteering safety bearing" Many of us have had the experience while orienteering of becoming "lost". I have had this experience myself on more than one occasion. It can feel scary not knowing exactly where you are, especially when you don't see or hear other runners . However, there is almost always a sure-fire way to get back to civilization. The "safety bearing" can help you find a road or path to get back to the lodge. It has occurred to me that I have never been truly lost; I always had that safety bearing. I also was never truly alone, because there were people who knew where I had gone and who were awaiting my return. They even knew approximately how long I had been out in the woods. Those people weren't even that far away, really. Coming to this realization turned a scary experience completely on its head. It felt pretty good! Our club is made up of really great people. Volunteers organize and run all of our events, which is one of the reasons why orienteering is such a great bargain in the realm of sports and recreation. There are people who volunteer to create or update the highly detailed maps we all use. Other people volunteer to design multiple courses for an event, so everyone who shows up has an appropriate choice available to them.

  • Inline Skating Safety
    Inline Skating Safety The latest innovation in roller skating is inline skating. [*NOTE: Although many people know the sport as "rollerblading," the term Rollerblade® is a registered trademark of Rollerblade, Inc., and should not be used as a generic term for the sport. Accordingly, this document will refer to the equipment and sport by the generic terms "inline skates" and "inline skating," respectively.] In 1980, inline skates were an ideal off-season training tool for hockey players. Inline skating spread from hockey players to skiers, who also used them for training, and then into the general population of fitness buffs and recreational sports consumers. Swiftly gaining in popularity, rapid inline skating can burn as many calories per minute as cycling or running. Its low-impact, gliding strokes apply less injury-causing stress to the lower body joints than other sports such as aerobics or tennis. Ankles are well- protected because the boots are a heavy, thick plastic and rise above the ankle. • According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, as many as two-thirds of inline skaters do not wear safety gear. • The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that from 2003 to 2007 an average of 32,585 inline skating injuries occurred per year. • Inline skaters should always wear safety gear, including a helmet, knee and elbow pads, and wrist guards. • Just as you would wear a helmet while bicycling, you should wear a helmet when inline skating. • Helmets SIGNIFICANTLY reduce head and brain injury! Since unintentional injuries can occur to even the most experienced inline skaters, the National Safety Council recommends these skating safety tips: • Always wear protective equipment: elbow and knee pads, light gloves, helmets, and wrist guards.
