Outings Planning Meeting
October 3, 2010,
9:30am-11:30am
Howdy Folks!
It’s that time of year again when the Great Outdoors hosts a meeting
to plan the next 12 months worth of outings. Whether you want to
lead a trip, co-lead a trip, offer ideas for trips, or just come
and mingle with other Great Outdoors members and volunteers, you
are welcome at this meeting.
I’ll be providing coffee, juice, fruit and pastries to snack on
while we bounce around ideas and make plans. This meeting is to
discuss car-camping, backpacking, adventure-cycling, car tours,
desert-mountain-beach camps, snow-camps, paddling trips, adventure
trips, relaxing trips and any other outing that is ‘overnight’.
(Any ideas or plans for day-hikes or other day-activities should
be directed to Jeff Rothenbach, our day-activities coordinator.)
Bring a camp chair ‘cause we’ll be having this meeting in the great
outdoors (a backyard) of a home in Koreatown. Rain will not cancel
this meeting; any inclement weather will bring the meeting indoors.
(Don’t forget to bring a calendar and a pen! No pets, please.)
Can’t wait to see you all! Woohoo!

P.S. Not sure if you can lead a trip on your own? Don’t know the
details on how to get started? Have questions about national reservations
systems? Come to this meeting and I will try to provide enough procedural
information to get you started; and/or hook you up with a co-leader;
and/or plan to mentor you through the process. In addition to this
personal help, Great Outdoors highly recommends signing-up for our
leadership training course, The Outdoors Experience. It is a thorough
presentation of outdoor skills, equipment, management, first aid,
procedures and leadership for our organization. (And it’s done while
CAMPING!) Inquire at the meeting.
