WHERE TO GO, WHAT TO DO, AND WHY YOU SHOULD CARE
Saturday, November 15, 2-5pm | REI Flagship store in downtown Seattle
Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Wilderness Act, the landmark conservation bill that created a way for us to protect our most pristine wild lands for future generations, and learn how you can get involved with issues facing these wild places in your backyard.
