June is Great Outdoors month - Join Merrell and UW Nature and Health to learn the powerful connection between our health and the outdoors
About this Event

exists to share the simple power of being outside and we are looking to double down on that mission during Great Outdoors Month in Seattle to show that your movie night could take place under the stars, your work from home office could be a picnic table at Myrtle Edwards, or your dining room could be the lawn at Denny Park.

Come early and participate in our fun, engaging and educational outdoor expo all day starting at 11am... all for free!

We are very excited to partner with for them to share what they have discovered about the connection between nature and our health.

Merrell firmly believes that as little as 20 minutes outside a few times a week can significantly improve our health and cannot wait to hear more.

Just show up or RSVP to be entered into an exclusive raffle!
