Outdoor Club of South Jersey

Established in 1967 the Outdoor Club of South Jersey is a not for profit organization dedicated to promoting hiking, bicycling, kayaking/canoeing, cross-country skiing, backpacking, camping and trail maintenance for fun, fitness, and friendship.

We are a dues-paying organization that welcomes new members of all ages and abilities to join at any time of the year. Membership funds pay for insurance and other Club overhead.

Activities are all found on the respective OCSJ Meetup sites and are led by volunteer members of the club. Only paid members can join the Meetup sites.

Go to the club membership page to find out how to join us and participate in all of the fun.

The fastest way is to pay electronically. Payments by check won’t be approved until the check is recorded. Payment by check could be delayed, especially now, with the postal slowdowns.
