Outdoor activities groups near New Albany, OH

The goal of this group is to bring together individuals looking to socialize with other third shift employees in the Northwest Columbus region. Currently, there is no set agenda or activities planned for this group. My goal is to identify individuals looking to meet up with a group, develop a normal cadence to life without sacrificing it all to early morning isolation. From here maybe if we can build enough momentum we can start planning activities.

Meet with other people who love the outdoors! From hiking and camping to sports like Ultimate and volleyball, we are all about outdoor activities and sports.

Our membership is diverse, a mix of single and couples, with most members in the 25-50 age range. We're looking forward to meeting you and hope that you will help us to keep it cool.

Fortify your social life and your friendships. Meet other intelligent, independent, interesting women who don’t have children or don’t have young children at home and have more time in their schedule for get togethers.  Planning events does take some effort so we are hoping everyone can take on some of the responsibility so that we may keep this group active. This group is for successful inspiring professional ladies ages approximately 35-55.  Activities may include dinners out, outdoor activities, fitness, live music, dancing, or whatever you post! Everyone will be made an organizer so more events can be planned. Dues will cover the cost of the board, *they are not free.* ***\*\*\*Removal Policy- \*\*\**** It takes time to plan events, not moving your status to "not going" and "no shows" are automatic removal of the group and membership dues nonrefundable if you are removed per Meetup policy.  Signing up for an event and canceling last minute (same day)  2 times is automatic removal.  We understand things happen, but after 2 times last minute within an hour before event,  this is a pattern, we have waitlists for more dedicated members. ***Also.. New members*** who keep signing up and *holding spots* while we have a waitlist and never been to a meetup before and ***keep canceling are removed after 2 times, if you can't get to a meetup -commit -then this isn't the group for you.*** Must have a photo to join so we know who to look for at events.

Looking for a community of adventure loving, boundary pushing, encouraging women to explore the world with?   You found it!   [Explorer Chick](https://d.docs.live.net/dd21754c8c726806/Documents/www.explorerchick.com) is a 2022 [Travel and Leisure World’s Best Tour Operator](https://www.travelandleisure.com/worlds-best/best-tour-operators-2022) changing the lives of thousands with our supportive community formed organically by the women who have traveled all over the world with us on our small-group adventure travel tours.   What we got here is a happy by-product of Real Women embarking on Real Adventures. Women bonded together by challenging themselves in the outdoors. Women who naturally encouraged one another and connected right away. Women who live to LIVE. ⁠  ⁠  🦸‍♀️ The friendships are REAL. ⁠  🦸‍♀️ The vulnerability on the trails is REAL. ⁠  🦸‍♀️ The empowerment is REAL. ⁠  🦸‍♀️ The personal growth is REAL. ⁠  🦸‍♀️ The cuss words, inside jokes, and SHE-naningans are REAL. ⁠    And we’ve been doing it since 2014! That year, Explorer Chick founder, Nicki Bruckmann was a wife, cat mom and home owner who worked full-time in corporate finance. Instead of feeling fulfilled by ticking all the boxes, she found herself feeling stifled. She made the choice to break away from it all and step out of that life. To figure things out, she needed a vacation reset. But not just any vacation. She wanted something that would feed her adventurous soul and push boundaries. But the thing about divorce? You lose that built-in travel buddy. Believing that other women must also be in the same situation; craving adventure and travel and not wanting to do it all alone, she launched Explorer Chick!

Launching in 2015, Explorer Chick ran one trip with three bold ladies looking for adventure. From there, this amazing community of women continues to grow, and in 2022 more than 1100 women traveled with us on 133 trips over 5 continents!    Whether you arrive as a solo traveler or with several of your closest gal pals, you’ll be greeted by a group of like-minded women travelers of all ages who love to go hiking, camping, rafting, backpacking, canyoning, surfing, kayaking, climbing and more. Basically, we’re all in on anything that gets us outdoors and active!   We travel the US National Parks and bucket list destinations like Iceland, Jordan, Galapagos, Croatia, Uganda and so many more.   The best part? You are taken care of by Explorer Chick’s professional, certified guides. They handle all the details: from food to accommodations to gear and extra words of encouragement when you need them the most.
