• Short Course Series: Sellwood Riverfront Park

• Wednesday, July 8, 2026

• 6:30-8:00 p.m.

• Sellwood Riverfront Park in SE 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.

Along the Willamette River, with a hawk enjoying the updrafts, Sellwood Riverfront Park is mostly flat, with the exception of climbing the butte (20 meters). It’s an urban park, with a ball field, climbing structure and a dog park. The course includes relatively medium-length legs and some control picking. The length is about 2.5 kilometers.

This training is for CROC members only; there is no cost. Register here by July 6 and we’ll send you the exact starting point. For questions and suggestions contact trainer Anndy Wiselogle.
