Event details & registration link: http://gphxo.org/Events/2021/20211009_GlendaleCommunityCollege.htmWe hope you'll join us as we present some urban orienteering at Glendale Community College in Glendale, AZ. On Saturday, October 9, we'll present
- 3 sprints (shorter courses)
- a Motala (combine all courses)
- as well as a beginner's clinic.
The 3 shorter courses allow participants to practice their map reading skills at a spot in the middle of the Phoenix metro area. The urban orienteering courses include easier navigation that is beginner-friendly. More experienced navigators can practice quick decision making on courses among campus buildings.
Glendale Community College is located in an urban setting. The campus doesn't include desert or forest areas, but does have many places to hide orienteering markers among the campus buildings. The college is located on flat terrain, so no contour lines are present on the map. Participants travel between buildings on sidewalks and grassy areas. We'll try to throw in a navigation difficulty or two, to help challenge your navigation skills, but you won't have difficulty traveling between the destination markers.
Please pre-register for this event. During pre-registration, you will select a specific half-hour time window to start the event. Please plan to start the event in the half-hour window you select.
