BCO provides you with the opportunity to enjoy more of what Houston Texas (and the world) has to offer while in the company of like-minded, fun seekers.  We are Houston's largest and most active social and outdoor activity club.  We offer you a packed event calendar from which you can pick and choose the events of your liking.  This is great for meeting other like-minded fun friends if you're new in town, or you just want to get more out of life in Houston. BCO allows you to have fun and meet new people in a relaxed, no-pressure environment!

We use VeriSign to process our online transactions.  VeriSign protects your credit card and other confidential information with industry-leading SSL encryption.  Your credit card number and information is never made available, even to the management of the club.

We understand the need for privacy.  BCO will never divulge information about its members to anyone. Your member profile gives you the option to display your personal information to other members of the club only if you choose to do so.  Here is a link to our privacy policy.

A member can click the event you'd like to attend from the Monthly Calendar. On the Event page, select Member Registration on the top navigation bar to RSVP for the event.  Once you've submitted your RSVP, you're all set to show up for the event!

It is important that you RSVP for an event, as this allows the leader to know to look for you and have a head count for any table reservations, tickets, etc.

All you need to do is sign on, select My Events in the left navigation bar.  You'll see all the events for which you've RSVP'd with a green dot.  Just select "withdraw" to remove your name from the event you're unable to attend, or just drop the Event Leader or office an email info@bayoucityoutdoors.com.

The Event Leaders greatly appreciate having the correct headcount!  We thank you in advance

We offer a full, money-back guarantee within 30 days of signing up for your membership

Unless otherwise noted in the Event Payment Details, as a general rule, refunds may be obtained provided that cancellations are received at least 72 hours prior to the Event.  However, refunds for events are not guaranteed. Refunds depend upon the policies of 3rd party vendors and other factors.  By registering for an event, you understand that you may not receive a full refund should you need to withdraw.  All cancellation and refund requests should be emailed to info@BayouCityOutdoors.com

To cancel your monthly membership, you can email your request to: info@bayoucityoutdoors.com at least 30 days before your next monthly renewal date.  Alternatively, you can cancel your membership yourself by logging in to your BCO account, clicking the "My Info" tab at the top, hovering over the "Actions" drop down menu on the left, then selecting the "Cancel Membership" option.

That depends on the specific event. Not every event is kid or pet-friendly.  In the description of each event will be icons telling you whether kids or pets are welcome to attend.

Your BCO dues get you access to the BCO interactive website featuring the BCO Events Calendar. Only members have the ability to see the full details of every event including times, places, maps, directions and contact information.  Members can RSVP for events on the BCO site as well.  Most events are for members and their guest only.

Your dues help to cover the administrative costs of planning and executing the events on the BCO Events Calendar.  We strive to host at least one event every day so that you'll always have a lot of diverse events to choose from.  We do the planning and organizing and even get you exclusive discounts for BCO. You just show up and have fun!

Bayou City Outdoors has several affordable options for Individuals and Couples to join and get involved in the hundreds of activities on the calendar each month!  Pricing and MORE here

Most events are free but it depends on the event. However, they are relatively small for instance some events may require the purchase of tickets or incur some travel costs.  Each event listing will clearly state if it is free or not, and if not, what the anticipated costs will be.  We always strive to get group discounts for our members.

Guests are usually welcome at BCO events. In the description of each event will be an icon telling you whether guests are welcome to attend.

We do enforce a couple of guidelines in the interest of fairness to all members.  Members will take priority over guests at events where space is limited.  Members bringing a guest to a BCO event are responsible for that guest's behavior and any damage that they may cause.

BCO Event Leaders are long-term BCO members who post and lead their own events and activities.  Event leaders are not paid or employed by BCO, rather they volunteer their time in exchange for free or reduced membership in BCO.

Event Leaders must meet the following requirements:

• Been an active BCO member for at least 1 year.
• To receive a complimentary BCO membership, must lead at least 2 events/activities per month.
• Be able to meet once per month to plan new events and activities.
• Be friendly, courteous and respectful to all event attendees.
• Be responsive and responsible!
• Likes to have fun and meet new people!
• Event Leaders may also be selected to be a part of the Buddy Program to help new members feel welcomed
