San Francisco Bay Area Inner City Outings

Description

The San Francisco Bay Chapter of Inner CIty Outings is a group of people dedicated to getting urban youth into the outdoors. Our leaders organize a variety of outings, including hiking, car camping, snow camping and backpacking. We are active partners in the growing national movement to take urban kids out of the city and provide them with outdoor adventures. Our volunteers give their time because they know from their own experience that spending time in the natural world can be transformative.

We are a 100% volunteer organization with a current group of about 45 active members, aged 20 to 70. In addition to leading outings our staff does recruiting, fund raising, training, outreach and equipment maintenance. We lead 25 to 30 trips per year.
