Setting a compass bearing, and
Info about gear & technology during events.
The class is in a classroom setting and sample compasses are available to use, or bring your own.
There is an optional field exercise at nearby Mead Gardens for anyone interested in putting the technique into practice with guidance from the Florida Orienteering volunteer. This extends the training time by a couple of hours.
