What’s Happening?

To celebrate Latino Conservation Week, HEAL Utah and our partners have teamed up for our second annual Gear Swap Festival at Uinta Brewery in Glendale. This is a free event providing fun and education on conservation and outdoor recreation with nonprofit organizations and businesses dedicated to the outdoors and sustainability. Learn new skills, get informed, and participate in a free gear swap.

Bring all your old outdoor gear and clothing for a free (yes, free!) gear swap! This gear swap gives a second life to items that take up room and ultimately may end up in the trash. By recycling and handing down your old and unused gear, you are giving someone the opportunity to have access to some gear they may have never been able to afford.

There will also be tabling from outdoor businesses and nonprofits, information about outdoor recreation and conservation, food trucks, and great vibes! Learn more about Latino Conservation Week here.
