Outdoor activities groups near Harriman, TN

Welcome to Minnie & Friends small breed playgroup! Our Meetup is based on the principles of pet therapy, sharing secrets for family happiness, and connecting with other outdoor-loving animal enthusiasts. We strive to make new friendships from around the world while helping local shelters and enhancing the lives of our beloved pets. Join us for social networking, brainstorming sessions, and exploring our town with fellow pet and animal lovers. Whether you're an introvert looking to meet people with common interests or simply want to share stories about your pets, this is the place for you!

The purpose of this meetup is to provide an opportunity to meet new friends, share new experiences, gain knowledge from one another. We have events at all skill levels from beginner to expert. We look forward to you joining us on the water, bike trail, camping, hiking, traveling, and more! Safety: Paddling at any level is a risky sport. Each individual is ultimately responsible for his or her own safety. Each individual is responsible for having appropriate equipment, for having the requisite skills for padding/sailing a given river or lake, and for the decision to run any river rapid or body of water. Although ultimate responsibility rests with the individual, important safety benefits are gained from paddling with a group of other prepared and competent paddlers. Bike Safety: Always wear a helmet, wear bright colored clothing, use lights at night, and stay alert. Be sure to bring repair tools and have an extra tube when possible.

This is a group for single, fun and wonderful people in their 30s, 40s and 50s in Knoxville TN. We will meet once a month at different venues around Knox area for fun activities such as games, dining out, wine tasting, beer fests and everything fun in between. We will have our favorite local networker to facilitate the events and create a fun and enjoyable mixer experience. This is a new group to Knox area, and I am open to suggestions for our monthly mixers!

To bring together like minded singles that enjoy things like hiking, biking, camping, music, games ect. Ppl that may be a little introverted or tired of traditional dating apps that would like to meet ppl more organically in a no pressure environment. I will be planning things like small local day hikes, ones further out within the region, usually between the 5-8 mile range. Hikes will not be early morning or fast paced. I generally hike around 2.5 miles per hour, but can see it down a little if needed. I like to soak it in and enjoy the experience and take plenty of pictures. We may also do some biking, some on trail, some greenways. Camping if anyone is interested, maybe some caves, kayaking, rafting, live music, game pubs, local events, and always open to suggestions. One or more of my sons may be joining us at times and I encourage ppl to bring their children’s times if you like. Mine hike and adventure with me often and I don’t let meeting ppl get in the way of that quality time. I think I will have a box, paper and pen at the end of events. This will be for suggestions of places you would like to go or things to do, and I won’t have to try to remember if told. For the introverted and shy like I am sometimes, if you are interested in someone in the group and would like for me to help gauge interest for you or help facilitate the connection then we can use it for that. Also this will cost me some money per month for this app, so I will not be charging ppl to join, but if you enjoy the group and activities then I will gladly accept “tips”, no required. If anyone is interested in being a co organizer and sharing the cost I am open to that. I expect everyone to act like adults of course and if I get complaints about anyone being creepy or disrespectful I will kick them out of the group as this should be a safe and enjoyable space.

Welcome to the Knoxville Rock Climbing Meetup Group! Starting over as the old group didn't really have anybody interested in actual climbing :), hopefully that changes. Plan to organize 4 types of events 1\. Indoor Rock climbing at OnSite or River Sports indoor climbing gym for beginner and intermediate climbers\, I was a good climber in my prime and secret to good climbing is technique not strength\, so would love to teach people\. Other experienced climbers are always welcome to be mentors as well\. Also would be a good place to network for experienced climbers\. 2\. Outdoor Rappelling and Beginner climbing \- this would not be free and only for group regulars\. 3\. Climbing for young climbers \- like toddlers and above 4\. Non\-Hardcore Hikes \- Beginner climbers are not going to want to climb every week but it's good to stay in touch and try it every now and then\. The local hiking groups are a little too hardcore for my old self :\)\. The meetup fees are 270$ per year and so the fees, for now I am paying out of pocket. the 2.50$ fees will also keep the scammers out. ZERO TOLERANCE FOR CRASS BEHAVIOR and NOT FOLLOWING SAFE CLIMBING PRACTICES. HOWEVER YOU AND YOU ALONE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY AND NOT THE ORGANIZERS.
