Discussion: Registration Open for O in the Oaks 2017

Hello all, registration is now open for O in the Oaks 2017. There will be three national ranking events Thursday March 23 through Sunday March 26. On Thursday, we are having a Pre-O event (also known as Classic Trail-O) in the redwoods of Joaquin Miller Park on a new map. In addition, there will also be a Sprint course available. On Saturday, you get to orienteer at Point Pinole, one of the flatter and faster venues in Northern California, right next to San Francisco Bay, on an Extended Middle course. Middle style orienteering, but longer courses. And on Sunday, the weekend is crowned with the U.S. UltraLong Championships, on the physically challenging Briones map. True O in the Oaks orienteering!

For more information, check out O in the Oaks 2017. Early registration closes on February 12, and regular registration closes on March 12. For procrastinators, day-of-event registration will also be available.

There is a national event at Camp Scherman (LAOC) the previous weekend, including the U.S. Relay Championships. There will also be various training opportunities available throughout the week. So book your vacation time now! Any questions, contact Gary Kraght, Registrar, at registrar@baoc.org

The LAOC and BAOC events combined form COW, the California Orienteering Week. Actually, there's stuff going the previous week, as well, including Ski-O near Lake Tahoe! Read all about these couple of weeks here.
