What we’re about

This is a group for " Parents" interested in outdoors and parenting. Let's get together and share our our parenting experiences as we go hiking, biking, camping, kayaking, travelling etc. and talk about parenting.

We are also affiliated with the Canada Outdoor World Seekers aka COWs and COWs West!

All skills levels in parenting and outdoors are welcome.

Welcome to Canada Outdoors Parents! We are a very active group of parents and parents to be while focusing mainly on outdoor activities. We encourage you to join and enjoy parenting and enjoy varied adventures such as hiking, international trips, etc.

As a group, we have adopted the following:

1. You shall be fun and positive and be open-minded about yourself and other members. You shall leave your personal and/or professional issues at home or at work.

2. We encourage you to log in to our website at least once every 90 days to keep your account active.

3. Honor and respect your RSVP commitment. "Yes" means "Yes", "No" means "No". Late cancellations, within 24 hours of the event, shall be marked as No Show at the discretion of the Event Host.

4. You shall not contact ‘Holy Cow’ to report other members unless you feel threatened or harassed.

5. You will be responsible for your own safety. You are expected to follow the dating safety guidelines and the event organizers' rules. At no time will you put yourself nor any members at risk during any dates or outdoor event.

Your profile picture Your main profile picture needs to be a very bright and clear picture of your face, large enough so that organizers and members can recognize you at meet-ups or carpooling pick-ups.

Your name

Please use a name using the English alphabet. Do not use a name that starts with an ampersand, a squiggle, or any other character that will make searching your name difficult. Because we may have several members with the same name, your last name can start with your initial. For example, Donna R. or David P or David Peer. Avoid nonsense names such as The Phantom for example, single letter names, capital letter names such as, RDJ or some such combination.
