Join us for an exciting day trip adventure! Our trip is happening on Saturday, October 17! Here’s the plan: We’ll head to Marianna, FL and spend the day exploring Florida Caverns State Park! We’ll have time to enjoy the park’s trails, check out the swimming holes, and soak up the scenery before ending our adventure with a guided tour through the park’s very own cave! After a full day of exploring, we’ll hop back in the van and head home—hopefully with some great memories, plenty of stories, and without getting back too late!

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.

Check out the trip's full itinerary here!

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.

Have questions? Email us at outdooradventure@uwf.edu or call 850.474.2819 / 850.474.2204

*Fun Fact: Going on your own? You'd spend about $75 on gas alone! Join OA and save over $30, plus park admission, cave tour ticket, and all the planning are included. Just show up and enjoy!

From the American Revolution and Civil War through the World Wars and beyond, faculty, students and guest performers bring history to life through songs, letters, stories and humor. The program pairs music from different eras with reflections on the people who fought, served, sacrificed and challenged the nation to live up to its ideals—from Abigail Adams' call to "remember the ladies" to soldiers' letters home, wartime songs of hope and later voices of change.

Part of the Songs of Revolution & Rebellion: A USO-Style Variety Show explores a recurring American story: Every generation inherits a nation still in progress, and has a role in determining what comes next.

Inspired by the tradition of USO entertainment, the show also pays tribute to Pensacola's deep connection to the U.S. military and its identity as the Cradle of Naval Aviation. The evening concludes with a special recognition of active-duty service members, veterans and military families.

Featured performers include: Corey McKern-Baritone, April Kocher-Soprano, Sheila Dunn-Soprano, Dylan Fischer-Baritone, Coda Lee Owens-Baritone, Ethan Middleton-Baritone, Blake Riley-Collaborative Pianist, Rachel Bettis-Flute, The Blue Anchor Belles.

Seating is limited. Registration is recommended.

This event is presented by the UWF College of Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities Gulf Coast Culture Series, The Dr. Grier Williams School of Music, and is sponsored in part by the John C. Pace Symposium Series.

Climbing is one of our all-time favorite activities, and we’re excited to take you bouldering outside on real rock at the stunning Horse Pens 40! This location is renowned as one of the best bouldering destinations in the Eastern U.S.! Mark your calendars for Saturday, Oct. 24 to Sunday, Oct. 25, 2026—you won’t want to miss this rocktastic adventure!

Here’s the plan: Saturday – Hit the road to Steele, Alabama, set up camp, climb a little, and enjoy a cozy campfire and eat S'mores; Sunday - Wake up and climb until it's time to leave! We’ll be camping in HP40 so accessing the boulders are very easy - the campgrounds have bathrooms and plenty of space to explore. Our gear is made for chilly weather, so even if it's still a tad cold, we will be prepared!

Every trip is led by at least two trained OA staff or volunteers, with transportation included. 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.

Check out the trip's full itinerary here!

*Fun Fact: The base cost of this trip—HP40 climbing fee ($22), camping ($22), and transportation ($120)—totals about $144. And that doesn’t even include camping and climbing gear OA is providing! Just the camping equipment alone can cost hundreds. By going with OA, you’re saving at least about $100, even if you already own your own climbing and camping gear!

The trail comes alive on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, from 7:00 PM–10:00 PM...if you dare! 👻 The last entry time for the trail will be at 9:40 PM.

FREE for all UWF students, faculty, and staff! Just bring your Argo Card! If you pre-register, please have a screenshot of your registration ready at check-in to help the line move as quickly as possible.

Community members are welcome, too! Admission is just $10 per group (up to 5 people). Groups with more than 5 participants must purchase an additional group registration. Solo participants are also welcome for $10. Only one person per group should register to avoid duplicate payments (you'll have to create a free Rec Account). All payments must be made through the registration process. Cash, Apple Pay, and all other forms of payment will not be accepted at the event. All registrations are final and non-refundable. After registering, you'll receive a confirmation email with a waiver link to share with the rest of your group, or they may complete their waivers upon arrival. Please note: If you register in advance, please bring a screenshot of your registration receipt and a valid photo ID so we can verify your registration at check-in. Your entire group must arrive together. If members of your group arrive separately, they will need to register and pay separately.

Pre-registration is encouraged, but not required! All participants must sign a waiver before entering the trail and no one walks the trail alone! If you arrive by yourself (which is totally okay!), we'll pair you with another group before sending you onto the trail.

📍 Location: Edward Ball Nature Trail (behind Crosby Hall, Building 10). Parking is available in Lots G and F. Follow the glowing directional yard signs—they'll lead you straight to the start!

🎭 Feeling Festive? Arrive a little early and enter our Halloween Costume Contest from 7:00–7:15 PM! The top three costumes will each win a Halloween prize bucket. Show off your spooky (or silly!) style, impress the judges with your creativity, and earn bonus points for an entertaining costume backstory. Best of all, costume contestants get first access to the haunted trail!

🌙 Night Hike Overview: The trail is a simple ½-mile loop that normally takes about 10–20 minutes to complete. You may have walked it dozens of times during the day—but at night, with only glow sticks lighting the path and a few mischievous OA staff lurking in the woods, it becomes a boo-tifully spooky adventure you'll never forget! (You are welcome to walk the trail multiple times!)

⚠️ Before You Hit the Trail, please review the following guidelines to help keep the event safe and enjoyable for everyone: •No touching actors or props. Any physical contact with actors or staff will result in immediate removal from the event and may involve UWF Police. •Prohibited items and behaviors: Weapons, drugs, alcohol, smoking or vaping, lighters, running, flashlights, and throwing glow sticks or any other objects are strictly prohibited. We have zero tolerance for unsafe behavior. •Leave pets at home. Even the bravest furry friends can become frightened by the sights and sounds along the trail. •Wear closed-toe shoes. The trail has uneven terrain and is not accessible for wheelchairs, strollers, or crutches. Uneven areas will be marked with lights, but please watch your footing and walk carefully. Remember—you'll be on a natural trail, so use caution to avoid slips, trips, or twisted ankles. •Be prepared for Halloween effects. The hike may include strobe lights, fog machines, loud music, sudden noises, jump scares, and low-light conditions. •Keep phones put away. Please silence your cell phone during the hike. Feel free to snap a quick photo before or after your walk, but while on the trail, please limit photos and videos and do not use flash photography.

Want to help bring the fright? If you're dying to deliver a few jump scares, sign up through the volunteer offering! We'll send you all the details after you register. We'd love to have you creep it real with us!

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.

Check out the trip's full itinerary here!

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.

Have questions? Email us at outdooradventure@uwf.edu or call 850.474.2819 / 850.474.2204

*Fun Fact: Going on your own? You’d spend around $80 on gas alone! Plus, OA’s group rate with the company saves you about $10. That means joining OA can save you at least $80—and you don’t have to worry about the planning or driving! Just show up and enjoy the adventure!

After receiving so many requests for more climbing competitions, Outdoor Adventures (OA) is excited to host TWO bouldering comps this Fall. Join us for the second climbing comp of the semester on Sunday, November 8, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the UWF Climbing Center (Building 72). Community members: your day pass is included with your competition registration—no additional admission fee required!

How the Competition Works: Check-in and warm-up begin at 12:30 PM. We'll officially starts at 1:00 PM (DoN'T BE LATE IF YOU'RE COMPETING!). Be among the first to climb a full set of brand-new boulder problems throughout the Climbing Center (and possibly the Boulder Lounge!). Each climber will receive a scorecard and have up to three attempts per problem. Judges will score each climb, and points will be totaled to determine the winners. Awards and prizes will be presented at approximately 4:50 PM.

Come challenge yourself, climb new problems, and spend the day with an awesome climbing community!

Pre-registration is not required, but is highly recommended, as space is limited to 20 competitors. If you register but can no longer attend, please unregister through your Rec profile so we can offer your spot to another climber.

Payment & Cancellation Policy:Full payment is due at registration. Cancellations made at least 24 hours before the competition will receive a refund minus the 7% University processing fee. No refunds will be issued for no-shows. If Outdoor Adventures cancels the event, a full refund will be provided. Waitlist Policy: If a spot opens, the first person on the waitlist will automatically be moved into the competition.

By introducing interactive elements such as a conversation pit in TAG’s alcove and poetry wall that is meant to be filled with artworks ranging from introspective to environmental, each viewer has space to renew and find peace within themself and each other alike.

The exhibition will grow and gain even more life as it is added to via communal participation, allowing for a new viewing experience within each visit. Purpose can be found in the journey, not just one’s destination, and Make It Last allows for the indulgence of such in a physical form.

The Art Studio is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. during exhibitions, excluding school holidays.

How It Works: Half the gym will be set up for fast-paced Archery Tag matches, while the other half will feature target practice and a relaxed space to hang out between games.

Teams of 4–6 players will compete in matches consisting of three 3-minute rounds. Don't have a team? No worries—we'll help you find one! Winning teams stay on the court until they're defeated (or ready for a break).

No pressure and no long commitment—just come out, shoot some arrows, meet new people, and have fun! Pre-registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are always welcome. Please wear athletic or casual clothing, remove loose jewelry, and wear secure, closed-toe shoes. No flip-flops, heels, or open-back shoes. Crocs are permitted only in sport mode.

Have questions? Email us at outdooradventure@uwf.edu or call 850.474.2819 or 850.474.2204.

Community Members: Please note that registrations for this event are non-refundable.
