If you love the outdoors, adventure, and wild living, you need to check out the first annual Stay Wild Expo and Adventure Festival! Based on his wholly excellent adventure magazine Stay Wild, creator and organizer Justin “Scrappers” Morrison (the Merc’s former art director) has put together a three-day-long expo of seminars, field trips, vendor booths, and wild-ass partying. You’ll learn how to cliff jump, basket weave, shape a surfboard, throw a knife, write adventure stories, build and shoot a bow and arrow, as well as do yoga in the woods, go on a group motorcycle ride, attend an Oregon coast surfing festival, and watch music from local awesome bands such as Cat Hoch, Bitch’n, Denver, and more! And best of all? IT’S FREE. Stop pretending to have fun, go to this expo, and get WILD. WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY
