SekrHubs’ free curated channels bring added value to members, allowing like-minded adventurers to exchange information on trip planning, gear recommendations, campsites, and more.

SAN DIEGO, March 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Sekr, the mobile platform simplifying the outdoor travel planning experience, today announced the launch of SekrHubs, a new in-app community forum that changes the way users can interact with each other. others. SekrHubs allows app members to share their expertise and experiences, find information on campsites, travel gear, and more, and connect with other app members who share their interests through SubHubs, which are custom channels within SekrHubs.

Similar to Facebook groups and Slack channels, each SubHub channel within SekrHubs – like #east-coast, #tips-and-tricks, and #tent-car-campers – is dedicated to a topic or experience and allows members to connect with others who share similar interests and experiences. Sub-hubs can include thousands of participants, allowing members to meet new people, share knowledge or find help, with the ability to add other members and tag them directly in the group .

Sekr focuses on simplifying social connections and outdoor collaborations in a way that is conducive to individuals’ social habits and preferences.

SekrHubs allows us to take crowdsource security a step further by providing a guarded space to our users to share reviews, insights and ideas, connect and meet like-minded adventurers across the country.”

It is a top priority for Sekr that SekrHubs are a safe and welcoming place for all members of the community.

SekrHubs is officially live and free to all new and existing app members.
