• Short Course Series: Council Crest

• Wednesday, July 15, 2026

• 6:30-8:00 p.m.

• Council Crest Park in SW Portland

• For CROC members only

In July CROC offers club members the opportunity to practice orienteering at Portland area parks on Wednesday evenings, while the sun’s out. These Short Courses are free for  members, they’re marked by small cones or flags, and there are no results (leave your e-stick at home). Start between 6:30 and 7:00 p.m. and finish by 8:00 p.m. These practices are a great way to have some fun and get a little exercise on a summer night.

Come out and enjoy a wonderful evening at one of Portland's highest parks.  It will be an easy 2K sprint around the park.  Map handout will be between 6:30 and 7:00 PM.   Bring a picnic, hang out and watch the sunset for the finish of the day.

This training is for CROC members only; there is no cost. Register here by Monday, July 13 and we’ll send you the exact starting point. For questions and suggestions contact trainer Ken Wenzel or training coordinator Anndy Wiselogle.
