outdoor trips for summer

Want more out of your summer experience? UAB Campus Recreation is offering outdoor escapades through its Adventure Recreation's Outdoor Pursuits program. The three remaining trips for the 2015-2016 schedule include visits to Nantahala, Glacier National Park, and the Grand Canyon. Custom trip services are also provided to those who want to take their adventure a step further.

Each trip has a scheduled pre-trip meeting on a designated Tuesday at 6pm in CRCT 290 unless otherwise noted. A $250 deposit or full payment is required to secure your spot and complete payment is due by the pre-trip meeting. The deadline to sign up for each trip is the date of the pre-trip meeting. Trips are sold on a first-come-first-served basis and are likely to sell out, so jump on the opportunity for a thrilling summer!

For itineraries, waiver forms, or additional information, visit the UAB Campus Recreation website. Any questions can be sent to outdoor@uab.edu.
