AORE Launches New “Outdoor Champion” Membership

Join the Movement to Shape the Future of the Outdoor Industry

The Association of Outdoor Recreation and Education (AORE) is excited to announce the launch of a brand-new membership tier: the Outdoor Champion Membership. This initiative is not just about joining a community—it's about fueling a movement that will shape the future of the outdoor industry.

What is the Outdoor Champion Membership?
Outdoor Champion members are part of a growing community of individuals who are passionate about the outdoors and the future of the industry. While this membership tier does not include voting rights or discounts, it provides an opportunity to connect, collaborate, and contribute to a unified community that is working to move the outdoor industry forward.

More Than a Membership – It's a Movement
AORE members are already Outdoor Leaders in their own right—people who care deeply about the outdoors and are committed to advocating for high-quality outdoor spaces, recreational access, and sustainable practices. We invite you to join our passionate community. AORE provides the platform where all outdoor champions can come together and drive collective action, sharing common goals and strengthening the foundation of outdoor recreation.

As Chris Perkins from the Outdoor Recreation Roundtable (ORR) recently shared, "One of the things that makes recreation great is that all of us have our own pockets that we identify with. You might really enjoy flat water kayaking, and I might enjoy mountain biking. But the important thing is that all of us have common interests in mind—high-quality recreation infrastructure on a healthy planet with high-quality access... platforms like this are powerful for uniting us."

This new membership is a way for outdoor enthusiasts to unite across different activities and interests. Whether you’re a kayaker, climber, skier, or biker, we all share the same goal—ensuring the future of outdoor recreation on a healthy planet with access for all.

Sliding Scale Pricing to Reduce Barriers
To ensure that this community is as inclusive as possible, AORE has created a sliding scale pricing model for the Outdoor Champion Membership, allowing individuals to choose a support level that fits their financial comfort. Your dues aren’t just a membership fee—they’re an investment in moving the industry forward. Limited Time Offer – Grow With Us Before 2025!
AORE’s goal is to grow the Outdoor Champion community exponentially before 2025. That’s why this membership drive is only available until December 31, 2024. We are calling on outdoor enthusiasts, advocates, and professionals alike to seize this opportunity and become part of a dynamic, forward-thinking community that will help shape the future of the outdoor industry.

Join Us Today
We invite you to be a part of this movement. Together, we can build a stronger, more unified outdoor industry that champions sustainability, inclusivity, and the future of outdoor recreation. Visit the AORE website to learn more and become an Outdoor Champion today.
