OD Outdoor Directory

Outdoor Activity and Training Course Directory

OD Outdoor Directory, the new QORF magazine style directory of training courses and outdoor activities is designed to attract members of the public to the benefits of outdoor activity and to provide a one stop source of training and business development information to the industry.

The main aim of the directory is to increase the numbers of people actively involved in outdoor recreation in Queensland, to inform people about the benefits of participating in outdoor recreational activities and to provide information on how to access activities, training and services.

We want people to know that Outdoor Recreation:

Is good for your health. Getting active is a key message from government and health professionals to address growing health issues i.e. Obesity, Heart disease, Mental illness
Promotes wellness
Is inexpensive compared to other activities
Provides opportunities for people to learn new skills
Creates new pathways to develop social skills
Provides opportunities for children to be creative and solve problems they might be faced with when attempting to complete an outdoor activity or challenge.
Contributes valuable $ to the economy
Has the highest participation rate by Australians and yet is severely under resourced

We want an outdoor recreation industry that:

Is vibrant, fun and exciting
Operates professionally and responsibly
Meets the highest safety standards
Is sustainable and financially viable
Cares for and actively maintains the environment
Is committed to developing the skills and standards of industry members

The Directory promotes a wide range of outdoor products and services, will be updated quarterly and distributed throughout Queensland in outdoor retail shops, schools, councils, libraries and so on.

If you would like to promote your business this could be a great marketing opportunity for you.
