Itinerary:
This weekend is open to Volunteers only.

We don't get paid to do this stuff and all the volunteers put in a lot of extra work to make sure that members have a great time. This is a chance for volunteers to get together, have some fun, hike, bike, do some leadership skills and generally have a great time, having fun and bonding.

all volunteers are welcome and encouraged to come!

UTOC cabin details:

  • Sleeping arrangements : There are some foam rubber mattresses – probably not 30, and so at least some of us should bring thinsolite or air mattresses. Plus sleeping bag or warm blankets, sheets, and pillows.
  • Food: There is a full kitchen with a gas oven and stove. We'll discuss meal arrangements by consensus
  • Water: We do need to bring drinking water with us. There is a spring to get water to do dishes with.
  • Dogs: they are allowed. Rocky is our official dog volunteer after all!
  • Things to do in the area: depending on the snow levels at that time of year...
    Creemore Brewery tour and look around the village: It is about 45 minutes away.
    Hiking: the Bruce trail goes right by the Cabin’s front door. Though at that time of year, the trail may or may not be hikeable depending on ice.
    Rock climbing and Caving: They lie right behind the cabin. Rock climbing may be tricky with ice, snow etc. Caving should be doable since it is warmer year round – though I might not be able to find the entrance. If Chuck comes, he may know more.

Required Items to Bring:
· warm sweater, and pants for indoor use it can be cool in the evening
· flashlight (good to find the outhouses at night)
· regular outdoor clothes, suited to activity
· Slippers or shoes for inside the Cabin different from outdoor foot wear
Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
