Welcome [Apollo High School wins first annual AFJROTC National Orienteering Championship competition held in conjunction with the USOF Interscholastic competition at West Point]

Orienteering Louisville (OLOU) is a club chartered by the US Orienteering Federation. OLOU holds several
meets throughout the year in both Kentucky and Indiana, including the Lewis and Clark Cup. Orienteering is a sport
that involves navigating a set course using a specialized topographical map and a compass. It can be enjoyed by
people of all ages as a competitive cross-country race or as a recreational walk in the woods. Beginners and
newcomers are always welcome at OLOU meets. We have courses and training available to assist individuals and
families in learning how to orienteer. Come out and join in the fun! For more info, check out our flyer at OLOU Flyer.
