SCOUT ORIENTEERING CAMPOREE

The Scout Orienteering Camporee is an event where Scouts will learn Orienteering skill development and racing to have fun, and to learn map-reading, navigational, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Scouts will also complete many requirements of the orienteering merit badge and rank advancement requirements. Orienteering courses are available for all levels–come to learn or fine-tune your skills. Scouts, BSA and Venture Crews are welcome to attend!

Come join in the fun while learning Orienteering! On Saturday evening, the Score Orienteering Championships will be held, with Traditional Championships being held on Sunday.

IMPORTANT REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Each Scout and his or her buddy must register for one of the tracks below. Scouters should also register for a track as we encourage participation by everyone, the exception being those that are volunteering. These tracks determine what the Scout or Scouter will do on Saturday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. Regardless of the track chosen, each participant (and there buddy) will compete in the night Score-O and will have the opportunity to compete in the individual orienteering championships on Sunday morning.
