Green Wave Navy is heading to the 2019 Navy JROTC National Orienteering Invitational for the 2nd consecutive year.

The Greenville Senior High School Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) has just been notified for the 2nd consecutive year, that they are the only school in Ohio with in Area 3 to participate in the 2019 Navy JROTC National Orienteering Championship.

Orienteering is a group of sports that requires navigational skills using a map and compass to navigate from point to point in diverse and usually unfamiliar terrain. Participants are measured on speed, accuracy, and the ability to find control points in the proper order. Participants are given a topographical map, usually a specially prepared Orienteering map, which they use to find control points.

Navy Nationals will take place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 15 - 18 February 2019, At Vasquez Rock Regional Park in Agua Dulce, CA. This will be the second time in the last two years that the Green Wave Navy will represent Area 3 and Greenville.

The estimated cost for a full team to attend and compete for the National Trophy this year will be about $18,000, which goes beyond the normal activities that were scheduled and budgeted for. Donation are needed and requested for the cadets to take advantage of such a great opportunity and rare opportunity.
