Sticking to the Internet lowers the costs for maintaining the Bulletin Board. GONewEngland isn't a dating service. Other outdoor activity groups seem to be set up for this, but GONewEngland is not. When you're out on an event, please focus on the activity itself as well as your safety and the safety of others. In this way we'll continue to have a no-pressure and fun atmosphere for everyone.
Most activities are light and require the most basic skills, but others are a bit more involved.
You must judge your own abilities when considering attending an event. Just Do It. GONewEngland is full of interesting, outgoing people, who are anxious to help others, pitch in, share, and have fun. Because of the excellent bunch of people in the Group, this makes for a comfortable, safe atmosphere for everyone involved. And there is Zero Tolerance for anything else.
