What we’re about
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life sometimes it's hard to find the time to get away, let alone all the time to plan and organize a trip. That's what TIOA is for. We have a list of trips available and all you have to do is find the time to join us. If there is a trip you want to do, then let me know and I will figure out the logistics and post it. If you are a beginner and don't feel comfortable, or don't have the proper gear this is the perfect way to Take It Outdoors in a safe, fun and friendly way. If you aren't a beginner and are looking for a challenge; we have those trips as well.
When you come out on a trip you will find that TIOA is a fun loving community from all walks of life. Come on out and join the fun!!
See you soon!!
NOTE - A lot of planning goes into the trips we run. Please be considerate of all the members and the organizers of the group and do not be a "No Show". I know that sometimes issues spring up (family issues, medical, work, etc.) and that is completely understandable. In those cases please send a message saying you won't be able to make it. If you don't plan on attending, don't intend to mark it on your calendar or don't intend to make a best effort to come to the event please, please, please do not RSVP "yes" until you are ready.
Thank you much!!

https://takeitoutdoorsadventures.com/paddle-boarding/Starting on dry land, participants will get to know the equipment they will be using and learn various aspects of paddle boarding. Following these exercises participants will work with the instructor to get on their boards and paddle around a small area learning new strokes and techniques. After instruction, paddlers will take a short river trip with the group to put their new skills into practice.
The goal of this class is for participants to leave with an understanding of how to properly paddle, have a comfortability on calm water, and the know-how to have a safe paddle boarding adventure.
TIO will provide boards, paddles, PFDs, instruction, and shuttle. You bring your sense of adventure and readiness to learn. Please wear clothes and shoes that you can walk into the water with and shoes that will not come off of your feet.
