Chapter activities are listed various ways.
|
Our primary listing is our published “Gansett Gazette” newsletter (discontinued as of Feb. 2017) which is updated on the website every two months. The on-line version of the Gazette includes all the bi-monthly listings plus additional listings and changes that occur between mailings.
The Narragansett Calendar (discontinued as of Feb. 2017) is a listing of all the activities currently in the Gazettes Newsletter. The calendar allows a quick viewing of common events on any day. Events link (via clicking) to the Gazette for specific details on that event.
Another listing is derived from activities that have been entered into the AMC Outdoors "Activities Database" (ActDB) and is for listing committee specific trips in the individual activity pages, such as for hiking.
Another source of listings is through the AMC Outdoors "Activities Database" accessed by the line item “Search all AMC Chapters”. It his here that you can search for activities that other chapters have submitted. Since the system is a database, you can searches for specific events, such as all hikes in Maine, or all local bike rides in Rhode Island. Alternatively, searching for all hikes on a certain weekend can show all chapter hikes on that weekend, not just Narragansett hikes.
The "List Server" emailing list is for notifications and reminders for upcoming and last minute activities. Signing up is under the line item "Join email lists".
The final way activities are listed is the Message Board, where changes to events and related announcements are posted.
All trips have the following risk statement applied to them.
AMC Activities Risk Statement. The activities listed here involve varying degrees of danger. When you participate in one of these activities you should be both physically and mentally prepared and equipped with the appropriate gear. You should always be aware of the risks involved and conduct yourself accordingly. The trip leader is not responsible for your safety: YOU are! Prior to registering for any activity, you are encouraged to discuss your capabilities with the trip leader. In order to participate in these activities, individuals under 18 years old must be accompanied by a parent or responsible adult, or obtain prior consent from the trip leader. Those accompanied by a minor are responsible for the minor's actions. Note: Participation in activities now requires acknowledgment of this risk via signature on this release form. The activity leader will have this form for the participants to sign at the start of an event.
