  • 2026-09-19 David Frei Kirkwood Night-O

    Registration Open

    Join the St. Louis Orienteering Club’s “flashlight” meet at Kirkwood Park. Designed for all ages, meet at the Lion’s Amphitheater and see how many check points you can find using your map and compass. Registration begins at 7:00 p.m. and the 45 minute meet starts at 8:00 pm with a mass start. There is a teaching session prior to the meet and awards following. Bring a headlamp or flashlight and a good sense of adventure!

    Note: This event is park of the Kirkwood Greentree Festival. Yep, it’s on the official schedule. So, the park will be busy. The amphitheater is in the center of the park off Amphitheater Drive (appropriately named).
