Baseplate compass for UA

Orienteering originated as a military exercise. While we are enjoying it now as a competitive sport in a peaceful forest, out Ukrainian colleagues use their orienteering skill to train soldiers & drone operators to defend their homeland.
If you have a baseplate compass that you are willing to donate, please put it in the box at the registration office during the 5Days. You can also purchase a few new, if no old at home. Any shop (Decathlon, etc) will do.

Thank you.
