New Hampshire Outing Club
The New Hampshire Outing Club (NHOC) is the oldest and largest student organization at the University of New Hampshire in Durham. Founded in 1911, it currently has around 250 members. The NHOC typically offers 2 to 3 trips each weekend to go hiking, canoeing, rock climbing, caving, skydiving, snowshoeing, downhill and cross-country skiing, and mountaineering. The club has also led sailing trips in the summer. The club is entirely student run and decisions for the club are made at weekly business meetings that are open to anyone in the club.
