Description

Monday is the Thanksgiving public holiday, and for many of us it can mean being away from family or missing out on the traditional dinner altogether. That’s why we’re inviting you to a Wilderness Union Friendsgiving! We’ll be gathering at the Wilderness Union warehouse, decked out in festive decorations, for an evening of connection, celebration, and comfort. Expect a fully catered Thanksgiving feast, complete with sides and seasonal pies, plus entertainment ranging from trivia games to bracelet making. Best of all, our amazing party planning committee has handled all the details so you can just show up, relax, and enjoy. It’s all about good food, great company, and the kind of warm, fuzzy good times that help us transition from summer to fall with full hearts.

Guests are welcome too, if you know someone spending the holiday alone, bring them along to join the celebration!

Highlights

Community Spirit
Thanksgiving can feel a little lonely when you’re far from family, so we’re bringing everyone together for a Wilderness Union Friendsgiving!

Feast Together
What’s Thanksgiving without the feast? We’ll be serving up a full buffet dinner catered by Swiss Chalet, complete with classic sides and seasonal pies, so all you need to do is bring your appetite.

Entertainment
After the meal, the fun keeps going with activities for everyone! Test your knowledge in our trivia games, get creative with bracelet making, or simply enjoy the festive atmosphere with friends old and new.

18:00 - 22:00: Dinner and Games!

Carbon Offsetting
Wilderness Union offsets the estimated carbon emissions of every trip by investing in a global portfolio of verified carbon reduction projects.

What to Expect on a WU Trip

Is a Wilderness Union Trip Right for You?
We offer a unique alternative to commercial tours. We don't just show you incredible natural wonders, we teach you to become confident in nature so you can discover the life changing magic of the outdoors. You'll love it here if:
- You want to make real friends, not just small talk with strangers
- You prefer "off the beaten path" over "all-inclusive resort"
- You're happy to pitch in and learn new skills (e.g., helping with camp setup or group tasks)
- You value the journey and the company as much as the destination

Who Else Will Be There
WU is aimed at a younger generation of outdoor lovers who don't see themselves represented in traditional hiking clubs and our members are typically 20-40 years old. Whether you're brand new to the outdoors or have plenty of experience, you'll find something for you.

Our Guides
All of our guides are highly qualified, passionate outdoor lovers, just like you. They love to share their knowledge and will help you see our destinations in another light, often teaching you something along the trail.

Q&A

Got questions? Checkout our FAQ for answers to pretty much anything you can think of.

Q: Is this a potluck? Can I bring sides?
A: The meal is fully catered so you do not need to bring any food, but any small holiday dishes you would like to share are welcome! Please label any dishes with ingredients or allergens so everyone can enjoy safely.

Q: Can I bring my dog?
A: Unfortunately, no. The warehouse isn’t suitable for pets, so we ask that you leave furry friends at home for this event.

Q: Can I bring my partner or a guest?
A: Absolutely! Guests are more than welcome, especially if they might otherwise be spending Thanksgiving alone.
