A short orientation session is usually available. This session will give you a few quick pointers on reading a map and doing an orienteering course so you can do your first course. It is a good place to ask a lot of questions.
Make sure you review other General Info posts. Particularly What To Expect and Registration.
Do you have any beginner events?
All COK monthly events have beginner courses & free instruction for newbies. Just register & pay for a WHITE course for your first visit and let the people running the show know you’re a first-timer. They’ll take very good care of you.
