It’s hard to believe September is almost halfway over. We’re counting down the days until summer finally fades into fall. It’s been a hot one… The days are getting shorter but the leaves haven’t quite started to change yet. With that being said, we’re looking forward to cooler days and some really great events. Here is a rundown of where we’ll be this fall.
Gauley Fest
September 13th through 16th | Summersville, West Virginia
The weather may be turning, but there’s still time to get on the water at Gauley Fest. Come hang with the river people and celebrate rivers together. This is American Whitewater’s largest fundraiser of the season and it’s a wild one!
Second Annual Pisgah National Forest Clean Up at The Hub
September 19th | Brevard, North Carolina
We love Pisgah National Forest and we want to help give it a little facelift. We’re joining forces with The Hub in Brevard, North Carolina to get together and clean up some trash on a few of our favorite trails.
French Broad Litter Floatilla
September 20th | Asheville, North Carolina
Join ranks with MountainTrue and Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine the Thursday before Asheville Van Life Rally 2018 to give back to the French Broad River! MountainTrue will provide enough boats and gear for about 20 people, so if you’re interested, RSVP now!
Off To The Races: The RVA Bluegrass Experience
September 29th | Richmond, Virginia
Off To The Races! We’ll be at the Richmond Raceway enjoying some excellent bluegrass music. The lineup includes the Infamous String Dusters, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Del McCoury Band, and the Jeff Austin Band.
The Festy Experience
October 5th through 7th | Nelson County, Virginia
If you love listening to tunes with your friends, bring them all with you to the Festy and get ready for some jammin’. The yoga flows like the beer and the music floats into the crisp fall sky.
Group Ride With Roanoke Mountain Adventures
October 11th | Roanoke, Virginia
Join Roanoke Mountain Adventures and Blue Ridge Outdoors Magazine for a group mountain bike ride on Mill Mountain. What better way to kick of the Roanoke GO Fest 2018?!
GO Outside Festival
October 12th through 14th | Roanoke, Virginia
We’ve never been to a festival with as many events as the GO Outside Fest. We suggest you join for the whole weekend, but if you come for one day, make sure it’s the day with the superhero race.
Bridge Day
October 20th | New River Gorge, West Virginia
What’s more thrilling than watching hundreds of BASE jumpers throw themselves off the New River Gorge Bridge? Jumping yourself. This festival celebrates the iconic bridge and allows jumpers to hurdle themselves off it for one day a year.
