SDO Training Classes for Course Setters & Event Directors

Volunteers build every SDO event you've ever loved — and stepping into one of these roles is one of the best ways to sharpen your own orienteering skills while giving back to the club that makes this sport possible in San Diego. These two trainings are how we keep growing orienteering across San Diego County, one well-run event at a time. Each session is just a $5 donation to the club, and once you put what you learn to work — volunteering as a Course Setter or Event Director at an SDO event — you'll earn credit toward future events. 🧭 Learn more about these roles here: https://www.sandiegoorienteering.org/roles  Course Setter Training — Sept 17: Ever wonder who designs the routes that make you second-guess your compass?
