About An Evening of Advocacy
Since 2019, The Mountaineers has gathered annually to raise awareness and funds for our donor-supported Conservation and Advocacy program. Each year, we center the event around a pressing conservation issue, and invite leaders and advocates to engage in insightful discussion to broaden understanding, support advocacy, and elevate solutions. The program showcases our conservation work and brings our larger community together to share ways we can advocate.
2025 Program: Defending Our Public Lands
The evening will kick off with a reception, featuring a locally and seasonally sourced dinner. The reception will also include alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages provided by our event sponsors Ghostfish Brewing, Georgetown Brewing, Seattle Cider, and Tinte Cellars.
Following the reception, the program will focus on regional and national impacts to our national forests and other public lands from staffing cuts, chronic underfunding, and proposed sell offs.
The evening will conclude with an invitation to support The Mountaineers conservation and advocacy work through philanthropic support.
Support Our Conservation AND Advocacy Work
The Mountaineers has a long and rich history as a regional leader, educator, convener, and advocate for issues centered on conservation. All funds raised through An Evening of Advocacy ticket sales, sponsorships, and donations will provide critical support for our advocacy efforts to conserve the natural world for future generations.
