What we’re about
Welcome to Women Empowered in the Great Outdoors (WEGO) Meetup!
We are a group of vibrant and adventurous women who gather to support, encourage, and inspire self-empowerment while enjoying the beauty of the great outdoors. Whether you are a women who enjoys camping, hiking, bicycling, kayaking, live music, festivals, wine or beer tasting, or simply enjoy connecting over delicious potlucks, BBQs, and cozy campfires, this is the perfect community for you! Let's embrace the great outdoors, take new risks, create lasting friendships and memories, and support and empower each other along the way!
IMPORTANT GROUP GUIDELINES
FOR A TEMPORARY TIME, we are opening membership to women who enjoy the great outdoors and want to come camping with us! Once the group is closed, you must be referred by another woman to be considered for the group. Don't wait!
This is a small, private, self-supporting women’s outdoor group. While there will always be opportunities for alone time and excursions with smaller groups within our trips, the vision for this group is to be in community with other like-minded women; to learn, to take risks and to grow into better versions of ourselves.
Also, we do require each member to financially support the group by contributing toward the Meetup fees and other group expenditures required to run this group. Currently, members contribute $20.00 per person per year. All participants in our events must be current, paid members of the group to attend. Members whose memberships are unpaid or have expired, run the risk of the system purging you from the group...and none of us want to miss out on our connection with you!
START OF MEMBERSHIP DUES: January 1, 2024
Talk to the women in your life who you know would be a good fit for a group like ours. Right now we have women from Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania! Member dues will start January 1, 2024. Payment through Meetup incurs a significant charge, so I'll send you details on how to make payment at that time. In the meantime, I will continue to carry the Meetup fees for the group. For anyone who joins us after February 1, 2024, dues will be prorated for the year and renewal will occur January 1, 2025.
Welcome aboard! Remember that this is a co-created group, so your ideas for events are welcomed and encouraged! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me by phone or email as shown below. I can't wait to see you at an event!
With warm appreciation,
