Values
Our Core Values
Values are easy to write down and harder to live by. These are the ones we try to bring to every walk, every swim and every meeting.
What we hold to
Community
Building positive relationships and encouraging participation, so that nobody has to head out alone unless they want to.
Respect
Treating all individuals with dignity and consideration — on the trail, at the shore and in our discussions.
Inclusion
Supporting an environment where different people, ages, backgrounds and fitness levels can feel welcome.
Responsibility
Acting thoughtfully toward participants, communities, and nature, and knowing when conditions call for caution.
Well-being
Recognizing the value of active living and recreational experiences without overpromising what they can do.
Cooperation
Valuing constructive communication and shared effort over going it alone.
Transparency
Communicating organizational information clearly and accurately, including what we have not yet confirmed.
Sustainability
Encouraging responsible recreational practices and leaving outdoor places as we found them.
