We are highlighting some of the great Brands, Vendors and organizations that will be participating in Escape From New York at 718 Cyclery on March 30th.
Check out Girl Gotta Hike presentations at 11 and 2
11:00am Girl Gotta Hike Presentation: A hands-on demo of what to pack and how to plan for for a multi-day / long-distance backpacking trip (and all the stuff that goes inside) from external frame to internal to ultra-light.
2:00pm Girl Gotta Hike Presentation: Public Transit day hiking series, where we go, what to bring and considerations for how to plan for a relatively nearby day hike or overnight
Girl Gotta Hike encourages women of all ages to get away from the grind and connect with the ground – to immerse yourself in nature as an antidote to a busy city-life. It’s your resource for information, encouragement, camaraderie and confidence that will help you reach your own personal summits. From short day hikes near home to multi-day (or months-long) backpacking trips, the Girl Gotta Hike community has your back and will be cheering you on every step of the way.
On Saturday, March 30th. 718 Cyclery and the Mighty Hatchet (254 3rd Ave, Brooklyn, NY) will host the 1st Annual Escape From New York Fair. The Escape From New York Fair is a day filled with free classes, seminars, and presentations from local small businesses, nonprofits, gera manufacturers and travel destinations committed to providing adventures and gear to the not-so-distant hinterlands of NYC.
