Adventure Society is the first outdoor activity and travel
social organization of its kind in New York City and the only licensed
& insured company of its kind in the city. A.S. was created for
people who enjoy trying new activities, traveling to new destinations and making
friends with others who share a similar passion. Our activities range from
mild (e.g. wine tasting and hiking) to extreme (e.g. white water
rafting and hang gliding) and are sure to pique any interest level!
Adventure Society was founded March of 2001 as the first company
of it's kind in the city by Alaskan native Serena Walker who, after living in
the city for a while, decided she needed an outlet and to find others in the city
who shared a passion for outdoor activities and unique travel. After searching
for several months, Serena was unable to find anyone in the city that offered
both multi-sport highly adventurous activities and that wasn't a singles club
or religiously affiliated so she created Adventure Society.
More than just an outdoor activity club, Adventure Society is
dedicated to providing access to an active, healthy and social lifestyle
with the goal of maintaining a balanced and high quality of life. We feel
that having a high quality and well balanced life is important and
sometimes hard to achieve when living in the city. This is why we offer
urbanites opportunities to escape the city and rejuvinate in
the outdoors.
To maintain quality and a personalized feel on the trips we only
offer smaller, more intimate trips, usually in groups of 15 to 30, where
you're actually able to socialize and walk away knowing the people you went
on the trip with. The most important focus and what has made A.S. stand out
is the unique itineraries of the trips and the personal touches
added to each of our adventures.
We recently created the membership
as a way to organize and improve upon the quality of trips and activities
offered. The membership is for people who are interested in being more involved
in Adventure Society as a way to enhance their lifestyle and the benefits
grow on a daily basis.
If you would like to get involved with supporting the Adventure Society
