The headline talk: Ann-Marie Brissett
A national-level powerlifter turned outdoorswoman, Ann-Marie (@its_ann_calling) moved from outdoors-shy city girl to wilderness warrior. Her story is the one most Torontonians need to hear, especially the friend you brought who's still finding their way outside. Thirty minutes of honest, conversational storytelling about access, gear, and finding people to go with.
The music: Kyle Stephens
New to the WU guiding team this season, Kyle Stephens is also a singer song-writer and will be playing a live set. His new album Everything's On Your Mind weaves songcraft with activism, the personal tangled up in the political. Equal parts groove, protest and a soundtrack to the evening.

Discounted shopping and gear giveaways
The store stays open so you can shop at a 15% discount throughout the event and stock up for the season. MEC are putting up gear giveaways through the event.
Crew Membership launch
We're also using the event to launch Crew Membership, our new free tier. If you've got friends who keep saying they want to come out but haven't yet, this is the easy on-ramp.
The social, after
When the doors close at 7, we move to a nearby bar to keep the celebration going. Address shared at the event.
