Join EEASC in partnership with the Palmetto Trail for a dynamic, hands-on orienteering workshop at the 2026 Annual Conference. Led by Midlands Trail Coordinator Furman Miller and Volunteer and Community Outreach Coordinator Chris Barry, this session will introduce participants to foundational navigation skills, including map reading, compass use, and strategies for incorporating orienteering into environmental education settings.
Designed for a small, interactive group (15–25 participants), this workshop offers a supportive space to build confidence, share ideas, and explore how place-based learning can deepen student engagement. Participants will also learn about opportunities to connect their students with the Palmetto Trail through meaningful outdoor and community-based experiences across South Carolina.
Our Wednesday pre-conference sessions will wrap up at or before 12:00 PM, giving you time to take a break and enjoy lunch on your own before the full conference begins at 1:00 PM. We’ll share a list of nearby dining options during the session to make it easy for you to explore local spots and connect with fellow attendees over lunch.
