On October 9, 2020, rather than retreating to our sofas for another night of Netflix, or heading to the basement for another treadmill sufferfest, let’s come together and talk about a topic that is near and dear to our hearts: How to Be Outside. The speaker series was originally slated for April, but due to COVID-19 closures, we had to postpone the event to 10/9. Tickets are available now, and with more time before the event, we’re looking for ways to make it bigger and even better, so please get in touch if you’re a local company wanting to get involved.
Until then, we’re hosting a free Virtual Summing at 8PM on the original date of 4/18, to whet your appetite for what’s coming in the fall and provide a bit of bonus motivation during these difficult days. Please join us!
A speaker series devoted to outdoor adventure, inspiration + motivation
COLLINGWOOD, ON | OCTOBER 9, 2020
We’ll hear about the wide range of ways that we can get more people outside—adventure doesn’t have one specific flavor!
There will be 10 amazing speakers giving short talks throughout the night, ranging from pro athletes to advocates to outdoors devotees who just want to get more people outside. Topics currently include how to start an outdoors movement, how to get more kids playing outside—without signing them up for youth sports, and how to step back from racing in order to start pushing your limits in new ways.
There will also be plenty of time to chat with local outdoors groups and clubs and get involved—using your inspiration from the talks and taking action to make 2020 the best season of your life!
