The Marist Outing Club’s mission is to allow all Marist students to explore the natural beauty of the Hudson River Valley by enjoying the outdoors in the presence of classmates. Not only do we supply our members with the planning, access, and proper equipment needed to partake in various outdoor activities, but the Marist Outing Club is also dedicated to preparing members with the education and training necessary to experience these ventures safely. We welcome all members of the Marist community, including students, faculty, staff, and alums who wish to participate in the Marist Outing Club regardless of physical ability or experience.
