Compass Basics

Ever wonder how to use a compass? Now is your chance. Join the Naturalist at the park’s Kingston
office (145 Mapleton Road, located approximately 4 miles north of Princeton) to learn about the basics of the map and com-pass.

Participants will learn how to interpret topographic maps and use a magnetic compass. Afterwards everyone will then try their new skills on a small orienteering course. This program will begin at 1:00 pm and is appropriate for ages 8 and over. The park will provide compasses for use during the program.
