Organizer: Damian Konotopetz (Coach)
Map: Bow Valley Provincial Park North
What?
Forest navigation / orienteering skill development sessions in forests within a 75 minute drive of Calgary. Join us if you would like to orienteer in the forest more often. Each training session will consist of 15-20 minutes of instruction at 10 AM prior to sending participants out onto the course for the training exercise. Damian will try to touch base as each participant finishes the training to provide them with specific comments and feedback based on their comments.
The training exercises will be control picking. Two advanced courses 3.9km, 4.3km and one intermediate course 3km.
When?
- 10 AM - Noon, 9 Sunday mornings starting April 16 except the Sunday of the long weekend in May.
Where?
- Bow Valley (see map below)
For Whom?
Participants (16+) will be expected to be able to complete a course 4 on a Wednesday night event or be comfortable navigating off trail for an entire orienteering course by themselves.
How much does it cost and how do I sign up?
- $15/session; pay on-site each session.
- Sign up on each Sunday webpage so Damian knows how many maps to print.
