~ Lead an Outing ~

To submit a new outing, contact an Outings Coordinator. You can limit your email info to date and basic description or just ask questions about it. Use the topics below as a guide. An Outings Coordinator will respond to you to discuss details and anything that is up in the air.

Our outings, which we like to vary, provide members with a choice of a Regular outing on a Thursday or an easier or different type as an Alternate outing every week! and sometimes a Bonus outing on another day. Every Cane can lead an easy-rated outing. If you would like to try it but don't know where to go, hit the Continue button below and tell an Outings Coordinator you're interested.

If you are not yet ready to lead an outing but would like some experience as a "Co-Leader", let an Outings Coordinator know.
