The Mountaineers OutdoorsFest Sponsored by Eddie Bauer
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 our Maps to Taps 5K Trivia Run or trying out your rock skills on our climbing wall, courtesy of Outdoor Research.
All outdoor vendors and organizations are invited to join in the festivities.
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.
Please join us for special guest Conrad Anker at 5:30 pm. Renowned climber, mountaineer, author and environmental activist, Conrad Anker will be recounting his adventures and speaking on Mountaineering and stewardship- challenges and opportunities facing the alpine world.
