Lowell Outdoor Club

Unwind from the stress and chaos of Lowell  • Experience the beauty of the Bay Area and California

WHY WE EXIST

We know Lowell can be busy. It's hard to find free time between challenging classes and all the activities Lowell has to offer. Decompress in the fresh air with the Outdoor Club! We've hosted trips to the most exotic and beautiful places in the Bay Area and California, that range from backpacking in Plumas National Forest to skiing in Tahoe. We offer trips for everybody, even if you've never been on a hike or touched a pair of skis. Join us for tons of fun under the blue sky, and meet some awesome people!

​CLUB STRUCTURE

We created our club to have fun outside and not add stress and commitment to our members' lives. Our only mandatory meetings are for our bigger trips like backpacking or skiing in the Sierras. We firmly believe you'll get to know your fellow members much better outside under the blue sky than in a unnecessary membership meeting, so we do most of our communicating through email and group chat.  :D

​FAQ

Why should i join your club I'm already part of– (choose 6 clubs, sports and extracurriculars)
Unlike your other clubs, the Outdoor Club is carefree and fun! We don't hold meetings, and won't take up extra time in your already busy schedule. We'll take you to awesome places that you'll remember when you look back on your time at Lowell.
Are your trips safe?
All trips have an experienced trip leader (typically a club officer) and usually either our teacher sponsor or an experienced parent.
What's so cool about the outdoors anyway?
Connecting with nature is something that everyone should try. Once you get away from the light pollution and city streets of San Francisco you'll see what we mean. If that didn't convince you maybe these stats will: 100% of people who came on trips with us told us they had a great time and would do it again, and almost all of our members come on a second trip with us after taking their first trip.
What makes the people in the outdoor club special?
We have around 40 members that range from student council members, leaders of other clubs, athletes from 5+ different sports, Lowell SSC members, and tons of other cool people, many of which can give advice on teachers, classes, college and personal issues.

​Officers
