This the Community Center of our SaharaSafaris Club where groups (any group) adventures are being prepared, do their meetings, courses, monthly social dishparties, or just hangout with friends for a movie night or famous speakers talks, and store equipment shared by any member to all, etc. with a little contribution to the costs of the Roof and Club to cover the cost.
Roof (like rest of SaharaSafaris Club) is NOT COMMERCIAL because it is the collaborative work of members and Club's Crew which come from all professions in this Country. We act as a group of well-educated friends who do things professionally together with their families and friends
.
We call it "Sahara Safaris Club Roof" and this page is its Info Page to answer most of your questions about it.
Needless to say, SaharaSafaris is the oldest adventures and exploration club in the country (officially since 2001 but it started long before that). It's Egyptians-led with enormous variety of backgrounds from engineers, officers, doctors, project-managers, marketers, judges, to students.

What is The Club's Community Center
In SaharaSafaris old tradition since inception in 2001, we have to do many activities in town before or after our zillion trips to Nature or abroad. We used to rent variety of places or use spaces in our homes, farms, etc. This prevented us from doing so many things though, so now is the time where we rent our own Place where most of our in-town activities and parties could be done easily.
For example, we can do our large parties (few hundreds every time) coming for trips updates and social mingling before and after trips in a place we rent (special restaurants, hotel rooms, etc.). Courses were scattered and opportunistic for a room made available not by actual need of community. But unfortunately we never managed make our t-shirts, stickers, shared kayaks, shared equipment, etc. available easily, and that is the added value of an open Community Center for all the Club's needs.
Since this is not-for-profit, the more we share the less costly it becomes, so we are open for other Club's own gatherings, courses, sharing equipment too in all adventures groups such as 4x4ing, Motorbikes, Hiking, Diving, etc. Meaning they can conduct courses, do social gatherings, have meetings, all with the small fee per person covering the place and all the hot drinks they can get while there.
We pay for the rent and a salary of the Roof Admin plus utilities, drinks, equipment to share or rent during events/trips, but if everyone pays a small fee to access it, we can cover this cost together.
Where is it Located and When Open
It is located in a residential area in Tagamoa in a very quite street with many decent neighbors that we have mutual respect with them. It's obviously located at the Roof of the building.
