VOYAGER! (Vegetarians! Our Youthful Activities Group Encourages Reciprocity!)
Welcome to VOYAGER!
VOYAGER is a recent development of your Vegetarian Society of El Paso. We are delighted to be able to provide our community's youth with healthy, cruelty-free activities and education. Visit this page often for the latest scoop on fun youth events, news, and information that all youths, ages 0-100 are interested in. If you’re looking for information about being young and vegetarian, or you want to meet other youthful vegetarians to hang out with and do cool stuff then you’re in the right place.
Voyager! invites You to (re)discover the gems of the desert southwest!
Yes, this means You!
In collaboration with the Vegetarian Society of El Paso, we participate as Voyager!s.
- Some activities are physically demanding, so please keep in mind your comfortable level of participation.
- Vegetarians under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
- All Voyager! events feature a vegan picnic. Please bring one vegan dish enough for three people (for yourself and two other Voyager!s.) Also bring utensils, a cup, plate, and a bowl. (Portability is a plus.)
