Well, we hosted Bread & Roses IV last Wednesday night, and I was really impressed with the number of people who attended – and attended enthusiastically. About eighty people were there, a lot of travel bugs were exchanged, and we even had a reporter from the Manchester Union Leader come by!
I have to say something here about Backcountry.com. It’s been our major ongoing supporter, since the beginning of the Bread and Roses events, and last week was no exception: two fifty-dollar gift certificates, water bottles, and lots of coupons for 15% off merchandise. We had a huge Backcountry.com banner as well, and hopefully lots of people went to the site and spent a little money.
Check out the Backcountry.com website as an alternative to LLBean of Land’s End, especially for serious hiking gear. I bought Paul a geocaching backpack there (the type that holds a reservoir of water as well) and he’s been very pleased with it.
And if you sign on to geocaching.com (you’ve *all* gotten your free account there, right?) and visit Bread & Roses IV before I archive it. You can read all the comments by people who attended the event, and get a sense of what it was like.
