Who is an Outdoor Champion?
You are! You care about the outdoors and what the future of it looks like. We invite you to let AORE be the space where you connect with fellow outdoor champions so that you can work together on shaping the future of the outdoors.
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.
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.
- Level 1: $50.00
- Level 2: $75.00
- Level 3: $100.00

More Than a Membership – It's a Movement
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.
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.
Benefits of Becoming an Outdoor Champion
In addition to supporting AORE’s vision of a vibrant community where everyone can connect to the outdoors, you’ll be joining the AORE community and will enjoy the following benefits:
- Access to AORE Message Boards - Our message boards provide the opportunity to ask questions and share information within the AORE community.

- Attend professional development webinars and networking events for free - We work to provide valuable experiences throughout the year that include virtual education and meaningful connection opportunities.
Sometimes viewed as only a hobby, let's work together to change the narrative and show everyone that this can be a sustainable profession. 
Acknowledging that the history and attitude about the outdoors may be less than ideal for some, together we can work together to ensure that everyone (regardless of race, ability, gender or identity) can feel welcome in the outdoors.
In 2025, AORE will become a partner for Leave No Trace trainings. We will help in the education that will aid in protection and conservation of our beloved outdoor spaces.
Access to public lands can sometimes be an obstacle. Let's work together to navigate the challenge that is access and permitting.
