Lake Norman Chamber Around the Lake with James Smith – My Outdoor Joy

Lake Norman Chamber President & CEO Bill Russell sits down with James Smith from My Outdoor Joy. James shares, “We help people on their journey into the outdoors by bridging the gap between thinking about the outdoors and doing outdoor activities. We introduce people with moderate to no outdoor experiences to a variety of outdoor recreational activities. We teach classes on outdoor activities and host camping trips, guided hikes, backpacking excursions, SCUBA, land navigation (map and compass) outings, and practical prepping/homesteading demonstrations that reinforce what was learned in the classroom sessions.
