REK FEST POP OFF!
We are so stoked to have had the opportunity to celebrate REK FEST with so many outdoor enthusiasts this weekend. With all of you we brought the outdoor community alive in Bethlehem!
REK FEST has been a dream festival of our owners Mar and Ian for many years. Dating back to their early days when the brewery was a shed and their vacations were spent on the road in a van traveling west. Mar and Ian were always attracted to the small mountain towns with a strong community. On every adventure they took, they returned with a story that went like, “We were in so and so town, and they had this incredible festival, with incredible music, and the best trails ever!”.
It is that energy they loved discovering that they have always wanted to bring to Bethlehem!
Thanks to all of you, we saw hundreds of outdoor enthusiasts gather in the back yard. Dozens of guided adventures successfully get on the trail. Great music and a movie played at the Pint House and we raised $3200 in our first year for public land. All at REK FEST!
Thank you to all our sponsors and partners, we could not have done it without your support!
