Upcoming Events
If climbing dirty boulders outside in the cold doesn't appeal to you, why not try indoor rock climbing for a change? Join Outdoor Pursuits instructors and Pacific students for a night of indoor adventuring at a local indoor climbing gym! This indoor excursion will certainly be warmer and dryer, plus just as much fun, as a day out on the rocks! Climbers of ALL experience levels are encouraged to participate!
Looking for low-priced, used outdoor equipment? Outdoor Pursuits is hosting a Gear Sale on March 12th, and this gear will be available to purchase! Come by the newly renovated building located right across the street from West Marsh Lawn at 2017 21st Ave. from 4PM—6PM and see what gear we have available!
Escape the stress of the semester and join OP and the SCC for a restorative sound bath. This guided, immersive experience includes gentle instruments that encourage deep relaxation. Lie back, let go of your stress, and soak in the present moment with instructor Julie Miller Ungar.
Feeling lucky? Join Outdoor Pursuits for a night under the stars filled with laughter, prizes, and classic Bingo fun! Grab a card and win some awesome Outdoor Pursuits swag. Bring your friends, snacks, and good vibes, we’ll bring the cards, the tunes, and the good times. Whether you’re a Bingo pro or a total newbie, this is your chance to play, relax, and maybe walk away a winner!
Grab a paddle, a PFD (personal flotation device), and get ready for some serious fun paddling across the open water. Instructors well-versed in paddle technique and boat etiquette will lead you through a day of exploration and non-stop fun. No need to own a kayak, all gear, transportation, and instruction is provided when heading out to sea!
