Over the hills and through the woods - many of us gather indoors to enjoy holiday festivities while reuniting with friends and family. It’s time to switch gears - why not plan to gather your loved ones and head outdoors, blaze the trails, or shred snowy hills on a Ski-Doo?!

 

Black Friday
If you are heading out on Black Friday, you need a helmet prepared as you make your way to busy aisles and stores. If we slow down and tap into what truly brings us joy we can stay refreshed in the moments we should be thankful for. This Black Friday we encourage you to take your adventures outdoors to destress, release endorphins, and strengthen the bond amongst your peers. How do you incorporate what you love around the holidays? 


#OptOutside
REI is one of the largest outdoor retail companies in America and biggest advocates in promoting what they love. Their nationwide campaign #OptOutside went viral in 2015 when they announced that they will be shutting down their 153 stores nationwide on Black Friday. Their goal is to encourage consumers to spend their time outdoors instead of in crowded malls. This huge act of passion has rippled out to other companies and enthusiasts who’ve joined the movement, including ourselves!

 

Thanksgiving
At Backwoods Promotions we like to reflect on what has built the foundation of our agency - our staff, clients, and internal team members. A bow without its arrow,  a motorcycle without speed, or a cowboy without his boots, we wouldn’t be who we are without our team. We are not only dedicated workers but also 'Enthusiasts First'®. You can bet that when we get done gobbling down the holiday goodies we will be heading back to what we love and encouraging all to join!
