Officials & Volunteers

No orienteering event can happen without a dedicated group of volunteers to pull it all together. For the 2025 Canadian Orienteering Festival, FWOC, EOOC and the AOA (with assistance from some controllers from GVOC) are hosting both the Canadian and Western Canadian Orienteering Championships. Here are the teams bringing you this great festival of orienteering. If you would like to join the teams, please scroll to the bottom to volunteer.
