CAMBER OUTDOORS!

Last Thursday, Wheelie was extremely proud to host the first ever Montana Camber Exchange through Camber Outdoors, an organization dedicated to encouraging women's leadership from the backcountry to the boardroom. After several weeks of planning and preparations, the event finally arrived, and we packed the lawn with some badass ladies and a few supporting fellas for an evening of networking, eating, drinking, and speeches. These like-minded individuals were able to gather, meet new people, and discuss their passion for business in the outdoor industry.

Formerly knows as the Outdoor Industries Women's Coalition (OIWC), Camber Outdoors was founded 1996 to empower and encourage women in the active-outdoors industry. 

Recently Lisa and I had the opportunity to participate in an extremely fun event out at Whitefish's very own, Whitefish Bike Retreat. Cricket Butler hosted Zander Ault and Heidi Rentz of The Cyclist's Menu out at the bike retreat on July 6th for a group ride followed by a delicious cycling menu chalk full of freshly grown, local farm foods from the Flathead Valley. 

These pop up events not only bring together locals and friends within the community for a fun trail ride together, but also bring support to the trail systems and non-profits they visit. They also support local farmers and bring awareness to the importance of local foods. Zander and Heidi recently hit the road for this season's pop up events and their first stop was Whitefish, MT where all proceeds were donated to Flathead Area Mountain Bikers.
