A brief description of the program:

Outdoor Pursuits (OP) provides a variety of programs and services that allows the FSU community to enjoy the outdoors. We offer three main programs: Adventure trips, Equipment rental, and Recreation resources (skill clinics, information, etc). All OP programs and services are available for FSU students, faculty, staff and the Tallahassee community. Exploring new skills, meeting new people, and having a positive learning experience are all parts of OP. The 5 key goals of OP are:

1. Provide participants with the opportunity to develop new skills
2. Enhance participants' appreciation of the wilderness
3. Enable participants to adapt to new and challenging situations
4. Provide participants with a change from "the everyday"
5. Create opportunities for participants to foster collaborative relationships

FSU Outdoor Pursuits is a proud partner of Leave No Trace in its efforts to build awareness, appreciation and respect for our wild lands.
