Alpine Lakes Wilderness 5th Anniversary Celebration
August 15, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Join WA Wild on August 15th at the Elliott Bay Public House and Brewing Taproom for a celebration of the 5th anniversary of the Alpine Lakes Wilderness Additions. The evening will feature guest speakers who were intimately involved in the development and implementation of the legislation which added 22,000 acres to the Alpine Lakes Wilderness and designated nearly 40 miles of new wild and scenic rivers. Elliott Bay will be re-brewing their limited edition “Alpine Lakes Pale,” of which $1/pint will be donated to Washington Wild. We’re bringing together the people who helped make this happen, including congressionals, business leaders, city mayors, and environmental leaders. Come celebrate this iconic addition, hear from the people who helped make it happen, and raise a glass to wild lands and waters!
*Attending this event is FREE!
