Welcome to the Edmonton Outdoor Club!
Free to join, and open to any adult in Canada,
the EOC brings people together in a fun, friendly and inviting atmosphere. We strive to
offer a variety of events, with some things geared for beginners, some more challenging
things, and lots of 'somewhere in the middle' stuff. And, we attempt to keep events as
low-cost as possible. A majority of our events take place in the Edmonton area, but
occasionally we visit our neighboring provinces or travel further away from home.
Each month we have regular outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, biking, inline
skating and canoeing (summer) and skiing, boarding, cross-country skiing and snow
shoeing (winter), as well as social events, and "special" events such as white water rafting,
caving, and dog sled tours.
The EOC is 100% volunteer
run. Get more general
information, see our membership
stats, and read our faqs for more
information. Still not satisfied? Contact us with any
further questions you may have.
INTRODUCING THE EOC STORE:
At long last we have a new store featuring some great high-quality embroidered EOC-
Wear. Check it out at EOC Store (note it is also linked on the left nav under "Other") and
email store@edmontonoutdoorclub.com if you have any questions. Have fun!
Web Site Upgrades Finished - June 19, 2008
We've finished putting in our web site upgrades. If you notice any problems with the web site, please e-mail webmaster.andwa@gmail.com immediately so we can investigate and fix. Changes include:
- "Remember Me" option so you don't have to log in to the web site every single time
- Register for event notifications and filter the calendar based on specific event types
- Event registration opening at specific time (as opposed to always at 1AM)
- If you do not show your e-mail address in the member network, now you can specify whether to provide the "Contact Me" form or simply leave your e-mail completely unavailable
- Coordinators can ask a specific vehicle capacity question for an event, and specify their own contact preferences (ie. don't phone after 9PM). More contact info for coordinators provided on the event details.
- Receive a reminder when you're on the waiting list for an event that is coming up (ie. to remove yourself if you're no longer interested)
