Ontario OUT OF DOORS has Reloaded!

Ontario OUT OF DOORS magazine (OOD), Canada’s best read outdoors magazine, has just relaunched its website. The province’s leading hunting and fishing publication has taken a major step forward in its online offerings.

After almost a year in planning, the new site www.oodmag.com and the community forum (www.oodmag.com/community) went live in early July. This is the first major upgrade in the magazine’s online presence since the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) purchased OOD from Rogers Publishing in December 2008.

The project was incoming OOD Editor-in-Chief Lezlie Goodwin’s prime focus since joining the publication in October 2012. The magazine enlisted the talents of a design firm and hired Web Editor April Scott-Clarke, but otherwise the site was produced in-house, utilizing the skills of the OFAH web developers, OOD‘s Managing Editor Ray Blades, and Art Director Tamas Pal.

“Our revitalized website is part of Ontario OUT OF DOORS commitment to digital content,” said Blades. “The redesign incorporates a user-friendly experience that offers quick and easy access to content from our province’s best outdoor writers. It’s also now compatible with mobile devices.”

“Ontario OUT OF DOORS magazine has long been the go-to publication for the province’s anglers and hunters. Now, our website offers that same level of top-notch content and stunning photography,” said Goodwin. “Visitors to the website and the community forum will experience greater ease of use and many new features. I’m sure you’ll enjoy what we come up with over the next several months to continue to make the site bigger and better.”
