1 Welcome<br />
We are expecting you!<br />
Dear athletes,<br />
We have one thing in common: we love the challenge!<br />
The International Orienteering Federation has bestowed on the Canton of Vaud<br />
and its Capital Lausanne the organisation of the next World Orienteering<br />
Championships. It is the goal of the Organising Committee, over which I have<br />
the honour of presiding, to ensure that the most favourable venues for beautiful<br />
and memorable competitions can be created and realised and to provide<br />
the best hospitality for the athletes from all nations. This is our challenge!<br />
By coming to Lausanne you will move around in the heart of a region where sport is king thanks to the International<br />
Olympic Committee and the many international sports organisations that have their headquarters<br />
here and the many National, European and World competitions being held in the area year after year.<br />
Your personal challenge will be to rise above your potential in honour of your own country and to show exciting<br />
competitions to the spectators of the country that welcomes you!<br />
Together we have one common aim: to share the passion for our sport which is ORIENTEERING!<br />
We are counting on your presence in Lausanne from 14 th to 21 st of July <strong>2012</strong>. See you soon!<br />
