Hey You!
It’s nearing the tail end of summer which means it’s time to pack in all of those favorite activities while the weather is nice! We have been little busy bees piecing some exciting things together for you, so keep your eyes peeled over the next few months!
A new month is upon us which means another Happy Helmets! We’re thrilled to announce August’s Happy Helmets is supported by Retrospec! This program has allowed us to give back to the community and we can’t put into words how grateful we are for that opportunity and the support we’ve seen - Thank you!
Introducing *drumroll please* our brand new Save A Brain Safe Space a forum for discussions, questions and support around head injuries of any kind. You may go by your name, nickname, or remain anonymous when participating in the forum - whatever you are the most comfortable with! This is a safe space that we created for traumatic brain injury individuals, caregivers and anyone looking to learn more. Check it out: https://www.saveabrainsafespace.com/
As always, (we can never say it enough) thank you for the consistent support! None of this would be possible without YOU! Knowing that we can save a brain together keeps us striving for more & we really feel the love! <3
Big Thanks To Retrospec
Retrospec graciously donated a generous amount of helmets and has incredible brand values they strive for:
“Make Nature, second-nature. The outside is for everyone, but not everyone feels comfortable outside. So we set out to make everyone feel at-home in the open-air. We believe that all people regardless of background or experience should enjoy the life-affirming, eye-opening beauty of the outside world”
As most of us know being a novice at something in the outdoor world isn’t always the easiest or most inviting, that’s why Retrospec holds this pledge in place:
“ - Invite everyone, regardless of experience
Focus on having fun, not being first
Be nice. It’s that simple.
Keep spirits high, even if energy is low
Leave judgement at the doorstep”
Retrospec is also a big advocate for accessible prices and local sellers! They’re the people’s champ!
