COG field trips

At the start of a trip, and before proceeding on the trip, each participant must sign a COG Field Trip Registration Form, which acknowledges the participant’s responsibilities. The form reads as follows:

I declare I am capable of undertaking this trip having: discussed with the Trip Leader any limitations I have (e.g. medications, physical), assessed the risks to myself and my property, and ensured I am adequately equipped.

I will follow the instructions of the Field Trip Leader, and advise them before moving away from the group.

Changes to trips are notified on this page of the COG website and on the COG chat-line.

A reminder that visitors are welcome to join trips. However, after three trips, if you wish to attend future outings, you would be expected to join COG. COG has a long-standing policy to give preference to members when numbers are limited.

Weather Problems - COG Field Trip leaders will always be at meeting points. Where weather is a problem, a decision will be made on the spot about proceeding. For weekend field trips, check with the organiser.
