In 2015, the outdoor supply company REI didn’t open its doors on Black Friday, instead, giving their employees a paid day off to “Opt Outside” with their friends and family. Many other outdoor companies and not-for-profits have since joined with them in this campaign, including Camp Winnataska. We gather for a hike somewhere on our property, and then have s’mores around a campfire. It is a wonderful way to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends, and is a FREE event.
