**🗓️ — No RSVP required 📍 This is not a live event — it’s an announcement drop for all members**
This isn’t a casual RSVP group — and we don’t wait until someone shows up to find out who they are.
Every member is verified and vetted **before** joining our private hikes, adventures, events, overnight outings, training, lodging etc., or co-hosting circles.
**No RSVPs — all requests go through the Universal Request Form**
👉 [https://forms.gle/quqELunKvDgaCUWg7](https://forms.gle/quqELunKvDgaCUWg7)

**We shape events around the members who show up and been identified and verified 🛡️— not a fixed calendar or RSVP's.**
📍 **This is a private club — not a public RSVP group.**
All hikes and walks are arranged through direct coordination and our request form, not RSVPs.
No crowds. No party scenes. No swiping. Just structure, peace, and connection — rooted in safety and respect for nature.
✅ Group hikes (3–12 participants) — for couples, friends, or travelers visiting the region — all guided and custom
✅ One-on-one hikes also available for members needing private pacing, mentoring, or recovery support
✅ Training & mentorship available
✅ Leave No Trace + permit-aligned
✅ Quiet hikes, scenic loops, or beach walks
✅ **Active Duty and Combat Veteran leadership** \- Veteran\-supportive\, faith\-friendly\, and beginner\-welcoming
✅ Experienced hikers looking for structured outings without Meetup chaos

**🔒🛡️ Badge confirms we’ve got basic safety info and alignment in place. ( Members that been verified it will be noted in discussion's and when they are mentioned a verified badge will occur. )** For example Mary 🛡️ West Berlin, NJ Joined Meetup on Sep 2006. , Will Washburn 🛡️Centralia, IL Joined Meetup on Oct 2018, 🛡️Jim New York, NY Joined Meetup on Feb 2016, 🛡️Joseph Caruso Allentown, NJ Joined Meetup on Dec 2021 etc.
