Hello Outdoor Adventure Seekers! Our group mission is:

1. Bring together a group of people who love to explore the great outdoors and other "outdoorsy" focused events and activities along with physical health+wellness.  (maybe the occasional indoor/social themed events too, but for the most part we will stick to the theme of the group)

2. If we can't host/plan and event, we still want to be your source for great things to do in NYC where you can network and also have fun(the best combo!). We will be sending out a daily email of the Top Things To Do each day(most will be free too!). The email will also be archived on our message board so people can comment and gather there. If we cant host the event ourselves, we still hope members can reach out and get together. ****Please not if you do not wish to receive our daily email, you can adjust your settings so you do not get the email ***

Events will be in a melting pot of different things, kinda like our great city.  Look forward to meeting you!

This is all free (find some other way to spend your $) but we do accept voluntary donations that help pay for shuttles, rackets and nets (Venmo: @NYCOutdoorBadminton).
