The CROC Training committee is offering short courses for members on Wednesday evenings in July, so that new course designers can design courses, and all members can have fun orienteering at parks in Portland. This year, all four course designers have had some experience.
Short Courses are meant to be fun and easy to put on. There are no fees, no results, no e-punch, no choice of course - just fun.
Times are 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm.
Event details
This practice event has a short 2.4-km point-to-point course with only 60 meters of climb and about 15 controls. Each leg has an optimal off-trail route, and there are plenty of nearby trails to use as catching features. This is a great course for anyone wanting to practice their off-trail navigation in a relatively easy environment. Bring a compass for your practice. The course closes at 8:00 p.m.
Register by July 5 to get the exact meeting location and to reserve a map.
For questions or suggestions, contact trainer Tony Pinkham or training coordinator Anndy Wiselogle.
