The three-day, family-friendly event includes public lands service projects, guest speakers, a “kids camp," guided natural and cultural interpretive tours and a Dutch oven cook-off on Saturday night. "We are excited to offer new tours and guest speakers this year, such as trails expert and author Ken Johnston presenting and leading a Nobles Trail tour," says Michael Myers, Executive Director of FBR.
