WELCOME to the home site for the Sammamish Orienteering and Rogaining Club
The club sponsors orienteering meets on a series of maps generally on the east side of King County and also holds special meets such as horseback orienteering. Approximately every two years the club has held a Rogaine, typically in the central Cascade area. Rogaine originally planned for this September in the Mt St Helens - Mt Adams area has had to be postponed because of permission problems, but we are still hoping for 2011 On the Left is a list of informational topics. Check each item for additional information. On the Right is a short list of upcoming Sammamish events. A complete listing of local orienteering events, including directions and contacts for the Sammamish events can be found under the Event Calendar listing at the left
