On Monday 24 August and Tuesday 25 August 2015 a 2 day workshop will be presented at the event centre of WRC2015 in Kiilopää, Finland with a mix of theory and field practical sessions to discuss rogaine course setting/vetting processes and approaches. There will be a combination of larger group presentation/discussion and smaller groups with an experienced coach to spread ideas on course setting techniques and philosophy between different areas of the world.

The bid from Iberogaine, the Spanish Rogaining Association, along with two clubs - Club Deportivo Navarra and Gipuzkoako Orientazio Taldea - received the best score in the vote among the IRF European councillors and observers. Hence Spain will host the 13th European Rogaining Championships in 2016.
 
The event is scheduled to take place 27-28 August 2016 in Aralar range in northwest of Navarra and southeast of Basque country with event center in Lekunberri.

To the attention of European members and observers,

Two bids have been received to host 12th European Rogaining Championships in 2015 - from Czech Republic and Ukraine. Take note of the proposed dates of the event, which are respectively 24-25 May 2015 (Ukraine) and 27-28 June 2015 (Czech Republic). Ukraine has previously hosted ERCs twice (2006 and 2010). Czech Republic has not hosted an ERC, but has hosted WRCs twice (2002 and 2012). However, both bids suggest areas and terrains which are different from previous championships hosted by these countries and also the organising groups are different. Please consult with your rogaining committees and make up your preference. A vote on these bids will be called on 6 January 2014.
