Join WWC at OutdoorsFest 2010
The
Mountaineers and Eddie Bauer will be sharing their passion for the
outdoors when they host OutdoorsFest on Saturday September 18th. The
event will be filled with hands-on experiences, free workshops, music
and entertainment.
Join us for a day in the sun and some
chilling down in the beer garden (sponsored by The Noble Fir of Ballard)
after dashing through the Maps to Taps 5K Trivia Run or trying out your
rock skills on the climbing wall, courtesy of Outdoor Research.
A
swirl of outdoor workshops, demonstrations of gear, manufacturers'
booths, and other activities will surround The Mountaineers Program
Center throughout the day.
This event is very family friendly
so bring the kid's out and introduce them to climbing or stroll around
our Family Activities Center. There will be something of interest to any
age group!
OutdoorsFest will highlight outdoor retailers and
non-profit organizations focused on conservation, recreation, and
outdoor education. With a diversity of vendors, an outstanding turnout
is expected.
At
5:30 pm, renowned climber, mountaineer, author and environmental
