Zip & Splash: Montgomery Adventures Trip

About

Get Outside with Outdoor Adventures (OA)! Whether you're a thrill-seeker or just dipping your toes into adventure, you're welcome here! No experience needed—but be warned, once you try one trip, you might get hooked!

Ready to take on a little bit of everything? Join OA for an action-packed adventure at Whitewater Montgomery in Montgomery, Alabama, on Saturday, Nov. 7! We'll head to a man-made adventure center where you'll have the chance to experience ziplining, high ropes, and whitewater rafting all in one day! Never done any of these activities before? This is the perfect opportunity to give them a try! The high ropes course is beginner-friendly and allows you to choose which obstacles you’d like to tackle. And don’t let the whitewater rafting intimidate you—it takes place in a man-made rapid pool rather than a natural river, making it a little less intimidating for first-timers! But whether you’re a beginner or you’ve done these activities hundreds of times, this trip is sure to be a blast!

Every trip is led by at least two trained OA staff or volunteers, with transportation included. If the activity requires additional professionals, they’ll be there too! All other details—like what’s provided and what to bring—will be in the trip itinerary. It’s your responsibility to read it thoroughly so you know what to expect.

Who can join? All UWF students, faculty, and staff are welcome to participate! Each UWF member also gets one “plus one,” meaning a non-UWF friend or family member can join too. To get your guest set up, they’ll need an OA Plus One Membership. To get your guest access to this free, year-long OA Plus One Membership, just email OA—even if they already have a RecWell account. This membership is only available through OA and isn’t offered anywhere else. Once it’s added, your guest will be able to register and join you on OA trips!

Payment Policy: Full payment is required at registration unless a deposit option is available. A 7% University processing fee will be deducted from all personal refunds. Refund requests must be submitted by the deadline—typically 14 days before the trip or event, unless stated otherwise. After the deadline, you’ll need to contact OA directly with your reason for withdrawing; full refunds at that point are not guaranteed and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If a trip is canceled due to weather or low participation, you’ll have the option to keep your spot for the rescheduled date or receive a full refund. Waitlist Policy: If a spot becomes available, the first person on the waitlist will be moved to the active roster.
