The Adventure Summit is an 18-year partnership between Five River MetroParks and Wright State University.
“Even if you’re not an avid outdoor person, I don’t think you could attend this event and not go away inspired,” said Eric Corbitt, director of the Student Union and Campus Recreation at Wright State.
One of this year’s Adventure Summit featured speakers was Neal Moore, a writer and explorer who traveled from Oregon to New York City by canoe. The solo 22-month journey covered 7,500 miles.
“This is absolutely incredible,” said Moore. “The whole idea of the celebration of the outdoors.”
Adventure Summit featured over 40 presentations from adventurous presenters, dozens of exhibits, an indoor triathlon, a bouldering competition, canoe battleship and a beer tasting.
The two-day event took place on Feb. 9 and 10 in the Student Union, attracting approximately 5,000 attendees. More than 100 volunteers helped to make it a success.
