Once again, the Nunawading Unit will be hosting Bush Nav Day 2011. Again this year it will be a 6 hour event, aimed at SES personnel looking for a bush navigation challenge. There will be teams participating using traditional compass skills, as well as teams who wish to use their GPS. The event follows Rogaine principles, however checkpoints will require various activities to be undertaken,
