Have you ever been to one of our Hangouts?
If you have, you know what a great time is had by all the attendees. There's really something for everyone!
The latest Hangout was in the 1000 Islands region of New York where attendees took walking tours, went kayaking, participated in yoga classes, and ended with a toga party and potluck, just to name a few of the fun activities on the schedule.
Next on the Hangout agenda is the Carlsbad Caverns Restoration Hangout. Here, Escapees will be able to help the National Park Service clean up, preserve, and restore trails in and around Carlsbad Caverns. They'll get a personal tour of the caverns, participate in social events, visit the local towns to sample the food and beverages, and end with the satisfaction of helping out one of the National Park Service treasures.
If you're interested in attending a Hangout, take a look at our calendar of events! We'd love to have you join us!
