The Outing Club fosters the development of social connection and leadership skills within Lehigh’s community by providing inclusive and financially accessible opportunities for wilderness engagement. We aim to lower the financial and expertise barriers that prevent Lehigh Student's from getting outside.
LUOC is built by officers (volunteer trip leaders) who are trained to run Outing Club trips. Officers are members who take on a greater burden of managing club activities. To ensure that all officers have all necessary skills to run enjoyable and safe trips, we run a once a year training that covers leadership, outdoor safety, first aid, and necessary outdoor skills.
Our goal is to raise $5,000 to be able to increase the number of students that we can bring on trips, while ensuring that these trips are enjoyable, safe, and run by well trained officers! See below for an idea of what impact your donation can have!
