As always, WON is looking for anyone interested in coordinating a trip! We are looking for anyone who likes to bike, hike, canoe, skate, climb or do any other outdoor activity. Check the calendar to see which days are open and plan an event of your choosing. Use this form to submit your ideas. A sample trip is included below.
Exact details of each event (meeting time, place, cost, equipment needed, difficulty level...) are posted through our members only mailing lists (not WONTalk) and in our newsletters. Only the trip date and title will be published on the website. Your contact information will be made available to WON board members. Only the SIGN UP information that you provide will be distributed to the general membership. If you put your phone number or email on the SIGN UP block, it WILL be made available to WON members, but NEVER to the general public.
Before your trip, please print copies of the Liability Waiver and have all participants sign before starting the trip. Our Trip Coordinator's Checklist will tell you everything you need to know to get ready for your trip.

Event Title: Chattahoochee River Guided Canoe Trip
Description: Join us for a fun and fascinating sunset voyage on the Chattahoochee River! Guided canoe trips offer an informal introduction to the history and ecology of the Chattahoochee River Watershed, north Georgia's most important natural resource. Along this two-hour educational adventure, you might see beavers, muskrats, herons, ospreys, wildflowers, and a variety of wetland plants. Each trip is led by one of the Chattahoochee Nature Center's (CNC) experienced staff naturalists. This is a fantastic way to unwind from the daily hustle and bustle of everyday life.
