    A few months ago I saw 3 or more short (2-4 min) cartoon like videos about map reading and orienteering which I believe were done in Scandinavia or Britian.. but I can't seem to find them on the web now and can't remember how I saw them. 

    I would like to download them or pay and download them.  Does anyone remember seeing these and know where I can get access to them?

    My High School in Hollidaysburg, PA has begun to introduce the sport and has used the REI intro video already.  

    On the morning of Friday May 24th we will introduce 5th and 2nd graders (paired as teams) to the sport using Jim Wolfe's (WPOC) map that he made of the middle and high school grounds.  This will be a World Orienteering Day event and I would like to have these videos to them in early May so the teachers can utilize them in the classrom leading up to the event. 

    Appreciate any help you can give on this.  Please contact me directly at orienteer7 at aol dot com.
