OUR NEXT MEETING

Our monthly meetings give members a chance to network, meet outdoor industry influencers in Arizona, and stay updated on key policies that could effect their businesses.

MOST RECENT MEETING

We put together an exclusive lunchtime training specifically tailored to Get Outdoors Arizona members. Are you lost when it comes to marketing? Not sure what will get you the best ROI during these hard times when your budget is already stretched thin? Don’t fret - Carrie Hamblen, CEO of the Las Cruces Green Chamber of Commerce, is here to help. 

She has a proven track record of helping small businesses increase their profits by teaching them how to use local trails, landmarks, and other important outdoor features to market their products. We’ve put together a short, yet immersive, training just for GO AZ members.
