California’s Stay at Home Order states “Many of California’s public outdoor spaces and campgrounds may now open in certain counties with COVID-19 safety modifications. Follow the State’s stay home order by staying in your own community for recreation. Take part in outdoor activities only with members of your household.” To read more - click here.
Therefore, Great Outdoors (GO) has set the following policy for all of our Chapters:
All Great Outdoors in person meetings/events are hereby suspended until further notice.
Great Outdoors consists of five Chapters serving regions throughout Southern California. Membership entitles privileges to all events, activities, and discounts sponsored by any of the Great Outdoors Chapters. We are a non-profit, all volunteer club predominately serving the LGBTQA+ community.
You may join any Chapter you wish, regardless of where you reside or work. We encourage you to explore each Chapter on this website. You will find that each Chapter has their own "personality" and unique style. Our activities include camping trips, day hiking, backpacking, whitewater rafting, canoes, swimming, kayaking, fishing, 4x4 off-road, cycling, mountain biking, social gatherings, game nights and other interesting events.
