    Celebrate Independence Day (that would be July 4) with the Great Outdoors SBVC at our Dinner and Drone Light Show Watch Party! 

    This Independence Day join us for a delightful dinner followed by a cutting-edge Drone Light Show, all enjoyed from atop the luxurious Hilton Garden Inn of Goleta!


    The Main Event
    The City of Goleta July 4 Drone Light Show will take place at Dos Pueblos High School. 
    Instead of fireworks, the City of Goleta is lighting up the sky with 250 synchronized drones, creating an aerial display not to be missed -- of which we will enjoy a spectacular and relaxed view from the Roof Top Bistro & Bar atop the Hilton Garden Inn, just across the freeway from the high school. 

    Drinks at 7; Dinner at 7:30; Drones at 9
    The Roof Top B&B offers a full bar and dinner menu, so leave your charcoal and picnic basket at home!  Just bring your appetite and wallet.  (We probably will have one large group check, so please bring cash to more easily pay your share of the bill.)  After a leisurely dinner we'll continue socializing as we await the drone show in our comfy lounge chairs.

    All Are Welcome
    Hosted by Great Outdoors Santa Barbara/Ventura County, a friendly and inclusive LGBTQ+ camping and social group, this is the perfect chance to relax, meet new friends and catch up with old ones, and enjoy the holiday in great company.

    Where: Roof Top Bistro & Bar atop the Hilton Garden Inn, 6878 Hollister Ave, Goleta
    When: Saturday, July 4th — arrive 7:00 PM or shortly after to enjoy dinner with the gang

    • CicLAvia traffic flows in two directions, just like regular traffic. Check out more rules of the route.
    • As a general rule of thumb, only people-powered vehicles are allowed, with exceptions for persons with disabilities. That means we do not allow electric scooters, electric skateboards, hoverboards, electric unicycles, motorcycles and other non-people-powered vehicles, but we do allow motorized wheelchairs and related vehicles for people with disabilities. We want to make sure that everyone can enjoy our route.
    • Are e-bikes allowed? Class 1 e-bike pedal-assist allowed. Class 2 e-bikes allowed when throttle is powered off. Class 3 e-bikes allowed when pedal-assist is powered off. Learn more here. General rule of thumb: if you're pedaling (and not riding), you're clear.

    End of Pride Torrey Pine Hike & Blacks Beach

    Sunday, July 19, 2026 3pm to 6 pm

    Torrey Pines Reserve is perhaps the most spectacular location along the coast of Southern California.  The hike starts at the picnic area above the beautiful Torrey Pines State Beach. The paved road climbs up through a forest of Torrey Pines, the world’s rarest pine species, which grows amongst amazing Badland rock formations perched 400 feet above the Pacific Ocean.  The ocean/badland views are truly breathtaking. The hike continues on a dirt trail and will make stops at Razor Point and Yucca Point, finally descending to Black’s Beach at Flat Rock.  Those wanting to take a brief swim in their short or swimsuit can do so.  After resting for 15 minutes on the beach, the hike will resume back to the picnic area.  Those wanting to stay at the beach to enjoy the gay nude beach, which is ¼ mile south of Flat Rock, need to sign out of the hike.  If one chooses to sign out, the individual will be responsible for getting back on their own.  After spending the day in the heat of the Pride festival or other activities, come and enjoy the cool ocean air and hike and swim with us at Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve. 

    MEET AT: Torrey Pines Picnic area 12600 N, Torrey Pines Rd. La Jolla

    DATE/TIME: Sunday, July 19, 2026 3pm.  Back before 6 pm

    DISTANCE: 3 MILES ROUND TRIP/ Picnic Area to Razor Point

    ELEVATION GAIN: 400ft up and down twice.

    DIFFICULTY: EASY to Moderate

    Hunter Education Certification Course

    Sat Aug 8th to Sun 9th, 2026 @ Ramona Town Hall 

    Hunter-Trapper Education | Game Commission | Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    This California Hunter Education Course is taught by volunteer instructors certified by the California Department of Fish and Game (DFG). The class takes place over two days, Saturday and Sunday. This hunter education course consists of a minimum of ten hours of classroom instruction. In addition to attending class, students are required to complete the chapter review exercises for the chapters covered on the first day and study at home.

    You Must Sign Up Online Here to Confirm Registration.

    Pre-Work: 

    It is recommended that students go through an online Study Guide found at: https://www.hunter-ed.com/california/studyGuide/201005/. Students who view the study guide prior to the class will be familiar with the material and have been known to do much better on the exam.

    HOMEWORK REQUIRED TO GET INTO THE CLASS – Print out the Hunter Education Vocabulary Pre-Class homework assignment and bring it to the classroom on the first day of class

    Costs involved: The class is free to all. Participants should bring snacks & drinks to class. Students should also bring paper and pen/pencil to class to take notes. I will have pencils and highlighters in class. We will break for lunch for 30 minutes and food options can be close by in Ramona.

    Students who successfully complete the course of instruction are awarded a Certificate of Completion. This certificate must be presented when applying for a hunting license.

    The Hunter Education Instructor makes the final decision in determining whether a student is qualified to receive a Certificate of Completion. A student who is unsafe or fails to demonstrate good sportsmanship will not be issued a Certificate of Completion. A student who does not pass the 100-question examination cannot be tested again on the same day.

    Ready for an Unforgettable Escape? Come join your GO friends to Southern Utah!       -Updated ticket costs-                 

    Tired of the daily grind? Then it’s time to trade traffic for towering trees and spreadsheets for starry skies! Join your Great Outdoors friends on a five-day, four-night camping adventure in the breathtaking landscapes of Southern Utah! 

    We’ll be setting up camp at Duck Creek Campground, a peaceful hideaway nestled in the Dixie National Forest near Cedar City—just 450 miles east of LA. You’ll be surrounded by groves of aspen and Douglas fir, with ancient ponderosa pines (some over 500 years old!) standing tall all around you. 

    There are hiking trails right from camp,Duck Creek Pond and Navajo lake nearby if you feel like casting a line, renting a boat or just kicking back. One day, we’ll hit the trails at Cedar Breaks National Monument—a jaw-dropping natural amphitheater—on a scenic hike along the South Rim Trail (note: there’s a $15–$25 fee per vehicle to enter). We’ll also explore the Mammoth Lava Caves, a wild formation from Utah’s volcanic past. 

    And if that’s not enough? Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks are just about an hour away. If you forget something or need supplies, Duck Creek Village is just down the road with shops, firewood, and a few local eats. 

    So….Let’s get outside, breathe in that mountain air, and make some memories! 

    Details: 

    We have reserved campsites 087,089, 090(Loop D) 

    We are allowed one vehicle per site, however there is overflow parking which is about ¼ mile away at the visitor’s center. We may be able to park a few more vehicles at the campsite but that will be figured out when you get thereThere is a fee for overflow vehicles in camp which the driver will be reimbursed. 

    Sorry because of the limited space, this is tent camping only. 

    There are no showers so bring your solar shower, however, Pine Wood resorts, which is in Duck Creek Village,offer showers if availability permits, $10/person. 

    Campground amenities include flush toilets, fire rings, picnic tables and potable water.

      RSVP: None needed.

      Note: This event is hosted by California Men's Gatherings with Great Outdoors, SAGA ski club, F.O.G., Pozabilities, and SDBears collaborating to support our LGBT+ community!

      DESCRIPTION: Thanks go to Ted and Adrian for bringing supplies and to Ray (Kiwi) for coordinating delivery of the wood! We're ready for another great season of chilling together by the bay!

      VOLUNTEERS: It would be great to have one or two people who can arrive early (around 4:30 or 5) to secure one of the fire rings. We could also use a third person capable of hauling wood to the site. Please let us know if you can do these simple but vital tasks.

      WHAT TO BRING:  

      1) Potluck item and a beverage of your choice(Alcohol is prohibited in Mission Bay Park.)

      Remember, we CAN have too many desserts, but we can never have too many entrees

      and sides.

       2) A beach chair if you'd like to sit. Bonus points if you bring a spare for others to use!

       3) A serving utensil if your dish needs one. A portable table, paper plates, cups, utensils, napkins or extra firewood are also much appreciated!

      4) A significant other, friend, or cuddle buddy.

      DIRECTIONS: Take the I-8 freeway west toward Mission Bay, exit onto Mission Bay Drive and make a right, then merge into the far-left hand lane onto Ingraham Street, heading North, then make a left onto Vacation Rd as if you were heading into Paradise Point Resort (previously Pacific Princess Resort). Then an immediate Right before entering the resort to get to the side parking lot. We’ll be on the left (West) side of parking lot by the rest rooms. (Note: we're on the WEST side of Ingraham St. Don't confuse this spot with a similar one on the east side of the street.)

      Please note: The two fire rings adjacent to the parking lot may be occupied by other groups. If that happens, keep walking up to the right, under the bridge, and we'll be at the first fire ring we can find.

      California Men’s Gatherings fosters a safe, supportive, welcoming community where men challenge themselves to develop their emotional, spiritual, social, intellectual and physical lives—with as much fun as possible along the way!


      If connecting with men is important to you, attending a LIVE or ONLINE event is a great way to find out about the California Men’s Gatherings and the many wonderful men who get involved. Since 1978, CMG has been a place where all men—gay, bi, trans, and straight—from 18-80+ can find a different way to connect. Men who come to CMG events and gatherings are predominately gay and bisexual, but all persons identifying as male, 18 years or older are welcome. Visit http://thecmg.org for more information.

      • Egyptians are friendly but sometimes aggressive salespeople (they figure they have 10 seconds to get your attention as you walk past their shops). They drive a hard bargain and prices are rarely labeled. Travelers need to learn to bargain effectively.
      • Poverty and litter are sometimes shocking and depressing.

      TRAVEL INSURANCE

      Although not required, GeoTours and GO strongly recommends that trip participants purchase travel insurance.

      • GeoTours has partnered with Generali Global Assistance (GGA), a well-established provider of travel insurance. You can use this GeoTours-Generali link, and the premium will be the same as going straight to the Generali site.
      • GGA’s ESSENTIAL policy covers Trip Cancellation, Trip Interruption, Medical Evacuation, Medical costs, and Lost/Stolen Baggage. Trip Cancellation coverage means that travel insurance will reimburse non-refundable trip costs if you cancel for a covered reason. Cancellation coverage only works if you purchase the insurance BEFORE a sickness or injury forces you to cancel, and an insurance claim requires a physician’s written advice that you should cancel your trip due to your illness or injury.
      • GGA's ESSENTIAL coverage costs about $250 for a 60-year-old, $3900 trip cost (airfare + GeoTours price), November 13 – 24, 2026. Cost depends on age and is less for younger travelers, more for older travelers.
      • You can also compare travel insurance policies from other providers at squaremouth.com.
      • If you travel frequently, you should consider an annual policy from Allianz.

      CANCELLATION POLICY

      To cancel your participation, you must inform GeoTours in writing or by email. Cancellation date is the date when GeoTours receives your written notice.

      *Cancellation penalty is the amount shown below PLUS any non-recoverable expenses already paid on behalf of the passenger, such as non-refundable tickets or hotel rooms.

      Personal Considerations & Safety: 

      While several LGBTQ groups visit Egypt every year with no problems, all participants will need to understand and acknowledge the following cultural notes to ensure the group's safety:

      Egypt is generally not considered safe for openly LGBTQ+ travelers due to conservative social norms, lack of legal protections, and potential persecution under "morality" laws, with arrests and hostility possible, so extreme discretion, avoiding PDA and dressing modestly are crucial for those who choose to visit.

      Key Considerations for LGBTQ+ Travelers:

      • Legal Situation: 

        Homosexuality isn't explicitly outlawed, but "debauchery" and "public morals" laws are used to prosecute LGBTQ+ individuals, with severe penalties like long prison sentences.

      • Social Environment: 

        Public attitudes are conservative, and while some tourists have positive experiences, hostility and potential violence are risks.

      • Discretion is Key: 

        Avoid all public displays of affection (PDA), even for straight couples, and don't wear LGBTQ+ symbols like rainbow attire.

      • Safety in Numbers: 

        Group tours and reputable tour operators (some specifically LGBTQ+-focused) offer better safety and navigation than solo travel.

      • Accommodation: 

        Staying in larger, international hotel chains (Marriott, Hilton) can offer more anonymity than smaller places.

      • Online & Apps: 

        Use extreme caution with social media apps like Grindr.

      • Gender Non-Conformity: 

        Transgender individuals may face scrutiny; binding for FTM individuals is suggested to avoid unwanted attention.

      Tips for a Safer Trip:

      • Dress modestly: Blend in by adhering to local cultural norms.
      • Be discreet: Don't openly discuss your sexuality or gender identity.
      • Consider a fake ring: Wearing a fake wedding/engagement ring can deflect unwanted questions from locals.
      • Stay aware: Be mindful of your surroundings, especially in less touristy areas or at night.

      While many travelers report successful trips by taking precautions, the risk of legal trouble or harassment exists, making it essential to prioritize safety and cultural sensitivity.


      This is simply a notice and if you are interested please list your name on this GO registration.   When GeoTour's registration opens you will be sent a link for registration.

      You must register DIRECTLY on the GeoTours website/link if you intend to partake in this tour; GeoTours will handle EVERYTHING, payments, room assignments, administration of the tour, etc.

      • Dos Picos County Park Trip Notes

        Dos Picos County Park is located in Ramona, California. Its name is Spanish for "two peaks," derived from the two prominent mountains nearby. The surrounding ranch land and steep rocky slopes help preserve its secluded atmosphere.

        This park is known for its magnificent Oak trees.  The landscape is a mixture of chaparral, open grassland, and oak woodland. Coyote, fox, possum, skunk, and raccoon are all seen in the park regularly.

        The city of Ramona is minutes away when driving.  You may purchase food and other supplies there.

        Maximum RV length is 40 feet.  All sites have E/W. Several sites will be dedicated as tent sites.  These sites can have three tents, max and two cars.  The water spigots at these sites are unique.  It is housed in a plastic box that sits below ground level.  

        Tent campers, all the sites are gravel.   Your tent will likely be pitched on gravel.  Please bring blow-up mattresses or cots to sleep on, so you are not sleeping on gravel.  Tents should also bring extension cords. 

        At each site there is room for an RV and tow vehicle, or two vehicles.  Extra vehicles can park in the overflow lot for a total of $9, which is paid by GOPS.  The overflow parking lot is NOT close.  It’s located on the opposite side of the campground from our sites, so car camping would NOT be a good choice, please bring a tent.

        Leashed dogs are welcome at $1/night/dog.  Campers will pay for their own dogs upon check-in at the campground. 

        Sites 63 & 69 are ADA sites.  If you have an ADA placard, please let the trip leader know.   

        We will have access to the indoor pavilion and its outdoor picnic area.  It is located in the middle of all our sites.  There is a massive fire pit. The use of that pavilion and its outdoor space was an additional cost that was figured into the cost of this campout.  Typical weather in this area in November is high 73, low 42.

        Cancellation policy: cancel for full refund minus a $10 fees on or before Nov 10th, 2024.
