A network for women and men ages 38 - 58 who enjoy going out and meeting new people, having fun with others and sharing experiences. The "policy" concerning people who indicate they are coming to an event and then do not turn up is very simple - it is NOT A PROBLEM! You are free to change your mind on the way to the event if you feel like it, really, this is Vancouver after all, which is the opposite of being in the army. Okay, be happy.

Our goal is to bring together people who enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, snowshoeing, back-country skiing, and kayaking. We organize monthly social nights to meet with other outdoor enthusiasts. I'm also looking for people to help organize events so let me know if you are interested... The group provides meeting opportunities for the outdoor social network: http://www.livetrails.com.

Our aim is to promote running for as wide an ability range as possible, while encouraging new VanRun members to start running and support each other to improve or just to enjoy running!

This can be done by participating in runs, becoming an assistant organiser, or by emailing a suggestion to an organiser or the group. "Organising" a run is fun! Just pick a time, a place and a route and that's all y …

We are a group of people of all ages who enjoy boating, whether sailing or powering, and when not on the water, we get together to chat about being on the water.

Our activities include getting out on the water, learning about boating through instructional gatherings, and exchanging boating related stories through presentations members make of their trips.

This is a group for anyone interested in hiking, rock climbing, camping, kayaking, bouldering, etc. All skills levels are welcome. I love to take pictures along the trail and enjoying the beautiful scenery while getting some exercise (more of a slow and steady pace rather than a race to the top of a mountain).  I started this group because I frequently have weekdays free and it seems that most of the groups in the area predominately hike on weekends. So if you have a flexible schedule and want t …
