Resources
The Badger Orienteering Club has a number of resources that are available to club members. These include books for beginners, teachers, experienced orienteers and mappers. A list is currently being compiled. We also have mapping software(OCAD) and personnel resources with quite a lot of mapping, course design and event organizing experience.
