REI OPT OUTSIDE

OPT OUTSIDE!

2022 Winners Announced Below

The Lawrence Hopewell Trail joins REI Co-Op in encouraging everyone to opt outside, rather than shopping on Black Friday, November 25, 2022.

Since 2015, REI Co-op has closed on Black Friday and paid its employees to get outside. In the world of retail, this is an extraordinary move, but one the LHT admires. REI encourages its employees, its customers, and everyone to enjoy precious time outside. #OptOutside is not just about Black Friday. It has become a mindset. It is about choosing to spend more time outside all year round and recognizing the importance the outdoors has on our health and well-being.

The LHT and REI believe that this effort can play an important role in celebrating our shared enjoyment of the trail and the beauty of the outdoors. We encourage you to take this opportunity to get out on the trail, and to discover how much we have in common, not only with nature, but with each other.

“The LHT is is a wonderful and well-maintained trail that is loved by us and our English Coonhound Sadie. She enjoys the off-road trails, especially Mercer Meadows and the pedestrian bridge over Stony Brook. We love all the different scenery as the seasons change, especially the yellow wildflowers which overtake Mercer Meadows at the end of Summer. The abundant wildlife provides exciting scents for our hound dog to track. She cries with excitement in the car as we enter the parking lot and get ready to set off on our next adventure on the trail”
