Orienteering is a competitive international sport that combines running with navigation. It is a timed race in which individual participants use a specially created, highly detailed, map to select routes and navigate through diverse terrain and visit control points in sequence. There are twenty-one Irish Orienteering clubs with approximately 1,100 members ranging in age from nine to ninety. The majority of Orienteering events involve running in forest and open mountain areas, but occasionally we organise Park Orienteering, Mountain Bike Orienteering (MTBO) and wheelchair accessible (Trail-O) events.

Sligo Drama Circle, celebrating more than fifty years of drama in Sligo, represents the best tradition of drama in Ireland's North-West. From very humble beginnings in the 1950's where many Sligo people got the chance to tread the boards of Sligo Town Hall, to the present day where young and old have the chance to grace the stage of the Hawk's Well Theatre, Sligo Drama Circle have been to the forefront in bringing to Sligo audiences the best of Irish and international theatre. Having grown up in an Ireland where there were no televisions and limited cinema, Sligo Drama Circle and its forerunner, Sligo Unknown Players, played an essential role in entertaining the people of Sligo. This web site aims to bring together to a wide audience the history and traditions of our organisation as well as keeping the wider public up to date with upcoming events. We hope that the web site will constantly evolve and develop and that we can trace as many photographs and articles to add to the rich oral heritage that has been passed on to this generation by those that had the foresight to commence the performance of amateur drama for the people of Sligo and the North-West.
