Cascade Orienteering Club is monitoring the situation related to COVID-19 in Washington State and will follow guidance from local, state, and federal health agencies. We will update all participants with information both on event websites and via e-mail regarding cancellations or other changes. Community and participant safety are our primary concerns. Given the rapidly evolving situation, the club will address each event as it approaches.

Cascade Orienteering Event Revisions:

The remaining events of the Ultimate Orienteer Series (August 15 & 16 in Cle Elum, WA) have been canceled.

The Wednesday Evening Series is currently on hold. Events in this series require the least up front planning, and we are hopeful that the flexibility may allow some events to happen this summer. Flexibility is key, as we expect responses to permit inquiries to continue to be inconsistent in the short term. We’ll post event details as soon as more concrete plans are in the works with our land partners.

The Choose Your Adventure Series canceled its first event (July 11), and is tentatively planning to hold the remaining four events this fall and winter, contingent on land use permission and the current maximum gathering sizes as dictated by the state’s Safe Start approach. Since these events are historically mass-start events, we will likely need to change the format to prevent unnecessary gatherings.
