Event Calendars
National Events
The calendar of National Events lists events that are expected to draw a national or heavy regional attendance. This includes all OUSA sanctioned National Ranking Events, or NREs, whose results are used to tablulate the 12 month rolling rankings for OUSA members.
Multi-day orienteering festivals, such as the Pacific Northwest Orienteering Festival and Anza-Borrego Desert Orienteering Festival are included even if they do not have sanctioned NREs scheduled due to their extended schedule of events.
