180 How Does a Huge Outdoor Facebook Group Handle Staying Home?
Description
Lee Jacobson is on the podcast again. I wanted to get the listeners a look behind the scenes of handling a group which is dedicated to hiking, without wanting to promote people to hike the main trails. Covid-19 has currently changed getting outdoors.
The first thing Washington Hikers and Climbers did is turn on post approval. This way, all posts can be vetted before approved. Also, they have stopped allowing posts asking for current conditions, as this could encourage people to overrun the trails.
Listen to see the ideas Lee’s team has come up with to keep the masses entertained while stuck at home.
Lee started the Facebook Group Washington Hikers and Climbers which has over 132,000 members
