What we’re about

Sign up for our Mosaic newsletter!
Mosaic Outdoor Club of Ontario is volunteer-based, not-for-profit organization which integrates Jewish values with an appreciation of the outdoors. We celebrate and explore the great outdoors in a social setting. 
We provide quality group experiences to foster the development of outdoor knowledge and a respect for the environment in a Jewish context. In addition, Mosaic seeks to provide a positive social atmosphere for sharing those experiences.
We encourage you to join us in order to interact with other like-minded active people.
Love to be outdoors!
What type of activities do we do? We hike the beautiful Bruce Trail and Oak Ridges Moraine, we have Chanukah skating parties, we take city walks along the ravines, we ski the stunning cross country trails of southern Ontario, we play tennis. We enjoy bowling, we feature running clinics and we learn how to dance. And if that isn’t enough – we usually get together for coffee and schmoozing afterwards. Some programs we have done in the past include tree planting, orienteering, baseball and archery, to name a few.
MOCO also hosts fabulous weekend getaways up north summer and winter, complete with bonfires, singsongs and other fun outdoor activities. Our MOPACK club organizes amazing canoe and camping trips to spectacular sites throughout Ontario. Mosaic also has chapters in many other North American cities, and the annual Labour Day event is a fabulous fun-filled weekend with opportunities to meet others who love the outdoors just like you!

How to Participate in Mosaic Activities
When you sign up on Meetup, you can join our events either as a full fee-paying member or as a guest.
Become a Mosaic Member:
There are many advantages to joining Mosaic as a full member. Membership entitles you to participate in all Mosaic events, including weekend getaways, canoe trips and the annual International Event. In addition, you will not pay the $8.00 individual event fee (total cost of 5 events annually is equal to the annual membership fee),
To become a member, you pay an annual fee of $40.00, either in person or on line. If paying on line you must first submit the membership form to qualify as a member, following which you will be asked to make the payment. The form is found on the website (see link below), and can be mailed in or sent as an e-mail attachment. If paying in person, the form will be provided, and payment can be made in cash or by cheque.
The fee covers your membership until the next Annual General Meeting (AGM) held in February/March of each year. On two days each year the membership fee drops to $30.00. To take advantage of the discount you must sign up as a member at either the AGM or at the Annual Summer Picnic.

If you chose not to become a full member, you are welcome to participate in most events as a Guest, by signing on our Meetup site. You will pay an individual event fee of $8.00 and sign a waiver form found on the website (see link below).
