Silver Spring Outdoors

Silver Spring, MD

This meetup is for people in the Silver Spring area who enjoy being outdoors and want to meet and socialize with other area residents. We plan outdoor activities of short duration (typically <3 hours) and within an hour drive of Silver Spring. While the group may host any outdoor activity most of our events involve walking or hiking about four miles. We often walk on the stream valley trails that form a network in and around Silver Spring. In the winter, weeknight walks are more often in neighborhoods where there are streetlights. Members are encouraged to suggest and organize outdoor events. It is helpful if you can post a photo of yourself on your profile (even better if it is outdoors). Dues for this meet-up are $5 per year. Any member who hosts a meet-up event will automatically be exempt from dues for the calendar year. New members have a free trial of 2 months before paying dues. Members who are inactive for more than two months and have not paid dues may be dropped. Dues are paid in cash to the organizer to avoid processing fees which are high. The dues go to pay the Meetup fee for hosting the website which is currently $209.78 per year. Some rules/guidelines: Anyone over 18 can join. Children are welcome as a guest of a member as long as they are supervised and can keep up with the described activity. Dogs are welcome as long as they are friendly, leashed, you pick up after them and they are allowed in the area where we will be. If you have any questions about an event after reading the description, please message the event organizer privately or post a comment. No Show policy: You are a no show if you have signed up to attend an event (RSVP'd yes) and do not attend. If you change your RSVP at the last minute and give no reason that will be counted as a no show. If a member shows a pattern of signing up for events then not attending they may be dropped from the group since their RSVPs are preventing others from participating. In most cases members will be dropped from the group after two no shows.

Fun Cheap Healthy Activities In & Around Greater Baltimore

Columbia, MD

Any type of person is very welcome to join this meetup. No judgement here. The purpose is to have fun, learn something, and spend time with other human beings! You don't need to be outgoing, funny, interested, or interesting, but it's fine if you are! I will post a wide variety of activities ranging from concerts to walks in the park, all of which will be free or very affordable. Anyone is welcome to suggest a meetup. I believe it is possible to post a "suggested" meet up without being an organizer and I welcome people to try that and let me know if that works. I welcome others to take initiative to organize meet ups since I don't always want to be the one in charge! I ask for a one dollar donation at each meetup to cover meetup site costs. Thank you.

Patapsco Hikers

Ellicott City, MD

The Patapsco Hikers has moderate hikes most Thursdays centered in Howard, Baltimore, and Carroll counties. Most hikes are 7-10 miles in length and involve 500 – 1500 feet of climb at a pace of 2.5 – 3 mph. We also have occasional, easier (five miles or so, less than 800 feet of climb) hikes on Mondays.

Upcoming hikes are posted on the internet on Sunday or Monday for the following Thursday, weather permitting. We typically start at 9:30 sharp and end around 1 PM or so with an optional lunch at a modest nearby venue or trailside.

Note that the hike description gives the estimated length and cumulative climb of the hike along with some descriptive elements (rocky, rooty, muddy, etc). Please judge carefully if this hike will be a pleasant experience for you (we want to come back) or an unpleasant struggle that will kill your enthusiasm for hiking.

Hikes are limited to 10 attendees. “Yes” RSVP’s are required for each hike. We ask you to donate $1 per hike to pay Meetup fees but no one will be turned away if they choose not to donate.

Well-mannered dogs are permitted but only with prior approval from the group organizer.

Please note that I do not answer my phone unless I know who's calling. You can send me a message through the Meetup website.

WARNING Patapsco Hikers (PH) takes a common-sense approach to hiking/walking. We encourage participants use their best judgement and err on the side of caution when participating with the group. This is an outdoor activity and mishaps do occur.

By registering for any hike, you agree to the following waiver of liability:

*****************************************************************************
“I am aware of the risks inherent in outdoor activities. Therefore, I will be responsible for my own well-being while participating in the activities of the Patapsco Hikers, and while traveling to and from these activities. I agree that the Patapsco Hikers Meetup Group, its officers, representatives, other participants and trip leaders are not liable individually or collectively for any injury, disease, sickness, loss, or damage to my person or property, direct or consequential, arising out of the activities of the Group. Neither I nor anyone in my household is currently in quarantine, is awaiting the results of a corona-virus test, or has a fever, or any flu-like symptoms.”
*****************************************************************************

Hike with us; it’s good for your heart and good for your soul. Hike more and you'll worry less.
