Update: Formerly known as our BASECAMP events, we have changed the name of these fun networking events to GATHERINGS as part of our new Washington Outdoor Business Alliance.
Held at cool venues around the region, this is an opportunity to get together with your colleagues in outdoor recreation. Get to know each other, develop new business ideas, and just have some fun with one another.
Invited: Outdoor recreation business owners & employees, recreation students, and anyone who loves to play outside are welcome to join us.

For more than 30 years, GEAR AID has been the go-to gear care and repair company for the outdoor, camping and SCUBA communities. Along with helping people extend the life of their beloved gear through iconic products like Aquaseal, Seam Grip, Revivex and Tenacious Tape, they support the work of outdoor organizations including Recreation Northwest and North Cascades Institute.
