Join Us for the Outdoor Gear Swap!
Get ready for an exciting community event designed to help you refresh your gear while supporting sustainability! Bring your gently used outdoor equipment and trade it for something new. It’s the perfect chance to declutter, swap out your gear, and help others get outdoors, too.
A gentle reminder: this is a swap, not a dump. Please only bring items you would feel good handing directly to a friend: clean, functional, and complete. If you wouldn't gift it, please don't bring it. Broken, corroded, or incomplete items will not be accepted.
What to Bring:
Backpacks, hiking poles
Tents, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, camp pillows (no regular bed pillows)
Cookware, utensils
Camp chairs, coolers
Flashlights, lanterns, headlamps (must be free of battery corrosion)
Climbing rope, carabiners, other climbing gear
Fishing poles, line, and tackle (no lead)
Binoculars, navigation tools, first aid kits, other outdoor essentials
Head nets, bug nets, mosquito screens
What NOT to bring:
ANYTHING FLAMABLE
Broken items or anything missing parts
Large or heavy items that require more than one person to carry
Blankets, bedding, or general household textiles
Everyday clothing (jeans, dress shoes, non-outdoor apparel, etc.)
Food or perishable items of any kind
Weapons (guns, knives, or any other dangerous items)
Helmets, life jackets, or safety gear that cannot be verified for integrity
Why Participate?
This is your chance to share the love for the great outdoors! Recycle your gear, find something new to enhance your outdoor experiences, and help others in our community get equipped for their next adventure. Plus, it's all about supporting sustainability and reducing waste, one swap at a time!
Any leftover items will be donated to an appropriate non-profit
NO SIGN-UP REQUIRED, BUT REGISTRATION IS RECOMMENDED SO WE CAN UPDATE YOU ON ANY CHANGES.
