Sign-up cutoff is September 3. If it is past the cutoff, you will need to contact the event registar to see if you can be added.
IMPORTANT: You will have to sign up online to get your starting order.
We ask each family to bring an item for a potluck lunch. See more details on the registration site.
This event will be a special "Chase" format where we assign start times to runners in a way that will (in theory) ensure that all the finishers get to the finish control at the same time if they all perform at the same level they have during the "regular season".
Your start time will be determined in part by how you did during the regular GoGo Summer Series. If you did not participate in the 2026 Series, then we will do our best to estimate and then add 3 minutes to your start time.
Costs: $20
(Not part of the Season Pass but discounted for members ($5), season pass holders ($5), and youth ($5). ) Season Pass holders should review their earlier notice for their $5 discount code.

For the adventurous of all ages...
What exactly is Orienteering?
Orienteering is an activity that involves navigating terrain through a sequence of locations using a very detailed topographic map and compass.
The route between locations is not marked, it's up to the orienteer to analyze the map and determine how to get there. If your are racing, thinking quick can save you a lot of time.
Events generally have multiple courses, with one designed for beginners and 1 or more courses for more experienced orienteers. If you are able to hike trails through some degree of hilly terrain then you are physically capable of completing a course.
Why would I do something like this?
There are a lot of reasons why you might like orienteering...
Competition
Casual Exercise
Scout Badges
It's a sport! People race against each other to see who can navigate the course(s) the fastest. If this is you thing, we have people to push you.
Running not your thing? No problem! We have members that walk the courses with their families.
Both Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts of America have badges for orienteering. We can help your kiddo or troop get them!
Exploration
Fascination for Maps
Disconnecting
Many courses take you off the beaten path, away from pavement and dirt trails to those areas you likely wouldn't see if you just went hiking.
Orienteering maps are about as detailed as a map gets. They show just about anything that could reasonably be used to help navigate terrain. From man made features like fences, buildings and stone ruins to natural ones like hills, cliffs and steams, to things like how thick forest vegetation is.
Perhaps you just need a reason to disconnect from the information overload of all the smart things in your life.
