young people to engage in outdoor adventure, conservation service, and make meaningful impacts in their local communities. Recognizing the need for inclusive outdoors networks among fellow q***r folks in the Maritimes, we hope to encourage community-building over a shared passion for nature conservation and the outdoors, while doing something good for the environment!
