Outdoor Nation and Murphy’s Law in Denver

https://livingpraying.com/v7y2ktb6 Finally back from Denver. After four days of crazy cabbies, mis-booked flights, lost hotel reservations, and hug from guys I’ve never seen before in my life, I’m back in Austin. This trip was a good example of Murphy’s Law – what could go wrong, did.

https://traffordhistory.org/lookingback/bapfgvqsmqx Outdoor Nation proved to be a fascinating weekend of youth, ideas, and just a bit of playing. While it is hard to get anything really done in work groups of 10+ (and especially in groups of 30+) college kids, it was a unique weekend. Evening presentations from The New Wilderness Project – awesome guys, check out their website – and a panel of North Face sponsored athletes were the undisputed highlights of the weekend. On Saturday afternoon we took a break from legislating in the tent and had a “summer fun” day. I took immediate advantage of the kayaks and climbing wall and then wandered around to visit vendors, who included Merrell, REI, Leave No Trace, and the Colorado State Parks.

Ideas that would both encourage and enable youth to get outside. These ideas ranged from backpacks (to be distributed from local libraries) filled with maps and outdoor tools to ‘Outdoor Party Planners’ – an NGO that would facilitate outdoor activity days in underprivileged inner city areas and make it “cool” for youth to get outside. (This group hands-down won the best presentation award with loud music and random break dancing throughout the entire project presentation.) I’m pleased to say that the group I was a part of won the prize with an idea for OutdoorBook.com – an online database where users can find out about outdoor sports / activities in their area and meet up with mentors to teach them new sports. The four winning ideas received $2500 from Outdoor Nation to put the idea into play, and during the event the Forest Service kindly matched two of the event’s funds to bring the totals to $5000.

As one participant put it, there’s nothing like both living and working 24/7 with people on a project. I think nothing beats it for team-building and camaraderie.

enter site The summit wrapped up Sunday afternoon. Got to the airport early Monday morning and found out that I had been booked to fly out on the 28th, contrary to what my paperwork from the sponsor said. Thankfully I was able to hop on a flight later and made it back before midnight on Monday night. Overall I had very mixed feelings about the trip, but it felt absolutely wonderful to get out of Texas and be on the road again.
