Mentorship at Lambton Outdoor Club

The Lambton Outdoor Club Mentorship Program, launched in 2025, was created to help any member - and particularly new members - feel comfortable participating in Club events.  We want members, both new and current, to have good experiences when trying and participating in as many activities as they would like.  A mentor can:

• discuss the member’s interests and activity level, and the offerings of the Club
• direct the member to the activities that are likely to be most suitable and enjoyable for the member
• explain any activity protocols and fitness and skill expectations, and the different levels of activity that may be offered.
• help the member navigate the Club website (calendar of events, activity groups, activity guidelines, profile, etc.) and help with the selection of and registration for an event.
• outline what to expect when attending an event (e.g. introductions, information provided, role of the leader, general rules for participants) and possibly accompany the member to an event.
• be available by telephone or mail for any questions the new member may have as they become familiar with our club.

Even experienced members may find this program helpful.  For example, if they are interested in trying an event category new to them they would like some insight into that particular activity.
