REI’s Geared-up For Spring

This spring, REI (Recreational Equipment, Inc.), a national retailer providing quality outdoor gear and clothing, offers its members and outdoor enthusiasts new ways to connect with nature and enhance outdoor experiences through its programs, volunteer opportunities and innovative product offerings.

REI offers a variety of discussions, classes and outings designed to help beginners and experienced outdoor enthusiasts live a life of adventure.
