Organizer: Kevin Matrosovs (Event Director)

Overview

Welcome to our Kelowna spring training series! These low-key orienteering activities happen Thursday evening at 6:00pm at a different location in the Kelowna area. There will be both beginner and advanced courses, so there is something for everyone and their family.

Terrain

We are on a new map in the Wilden forest below Upper Canyon Drive that did not burn in the 2023 fire. It is mostly open forest with some hills, an extensive trail network, and recent fire smarting activity that has opened the forest up even more.

Meeting Location

In the cul-de-sac at the south end of Forest Edge Drive. This is a residential neighbourhood. Please try to carpool to minimize the number of cars. Parking is on the nearby streets and cars cannot be parked in the turnaround area at the end of the street. Please park respectfully.

If you need a ride, please email contact@sageorienteering.ca and we will see what we can do to help you out if another member is coming from your area of town.

Registration

If you already registered for the Kelowna Spring Series once, you are good to show up without registering for subsequent weeks.

If you have not yet registered for a Kelowna Spring Series activity, please register on 2M here:

Cost

  • No cost for Sage Orienteering Club members
  • $5 for visitors from other Canadian and international orienteering clubs

Sage orienteering club membership is required, which costs $10/adult for the year and cheaper prices for kids. Membership is required to fulfill our insurance obligations. We try and keep costs to a bare minimum while still paying for insurance and map printing. Everybody here is a volunteer doing our best. If you are able to make a donation to help cover some map printing costs or for other equipment, it would also be much appreciated.


Kelowna
