SMOC Independence Oaks

SMOC Independence Oaks is an orienteering event held on November 15, 2026, at Independence Oaks. The event headquarters is at the Twin Chimneys. A suite of courses is offered within the park.

Orienteering is a sport for all ages and fitness levels that involves reading a detailed map and using a compass to find checkpoints. Participants navigate between control points placed across the terrain, choosing their own routes and pace.

The event provides multiple course options so participants can select routes with varying navigation demands. Start and result information is recorded in standard IOF XML formats. The location and the use of mapped navigation are central to the event format.

Information about course choices and event arrangements is maintained by the organizers. The description above summarizes the setting and the core activity without specifying start or finish times. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
