Go Outdoors First Ever Community Campout Is An Action-Packed Success
We were delighted to attend the first ever community Campout event from Go Outdoors, a celebration of all things active and outdoorsy. Read on to find out more about the event.The mission was simple: bring like-minded people together for a weekend of camping and outdoor adventure. The team at GO Outdoors made it happen, hosting their first-ever community camping event at Tawd Vale in Ormskirk this weekend, bringing 100 campers together for two days of activities and a night under canvas (OK, polyester).The outdoor clothing and equipment retailer invited members of the public, alongside brands like YETI, OS, Speedo and Kampa, to a community campout all part of GO Outdoors mission to get people offline & outdoors and it really worked!

Hikes, runs, paddleboarding and mountain biking were also on offer, and all of it was free to join!England footballing legend and angling enthusiast David Seaman opened the event with an address to guests, Blackstone provided a complimentary evening meal and breakfast, and YETI created an outdoor cinema showcasing short films before a live band took to the stage to entertain guests in the evening, and believe me, it went off!Joe Hill, Outdoor Living Brand Lead at GO Outdoors, comments:Our first-ever Community Camp Out was a huge success, with 100 like-minded adventurers coming together at Tawd Vale. The Camp Out was the perfect opportunity to help people experience the benefits of time outdoors and introduce them to new hobbies.With the recent launch of our new GO Outdoors Community initiative, we hope this Camp Out will be the first of many events of its kind.The event was capped at 100 attendees, and visitors could sign up for events they wanted to take part in ahead of time. Events such as yoga and paddleboarding were extremely popular, with overwhelmingly positive feedback all round.One visitor commented on their time at GO Outdoors community camp out:Honestly, from start to finish we had an absolute blast. The team was so welcoming, and we got stuck straight into the activities. The guided hike with OS was a personal highlight and we got to keep our amazing Freespirit Aquarobes after paddleboarding in the lake. It was also so lovely to meet and hang out with other guests who were just as outdoorsy as us. Well be back again next time, for sure!The vibe was friendly, supportive and genuinely lovely, and honestly, its never felt more important to put our phones down and get outside. We chatted and shared stories with other people, encouraging and helping each other along the way the kind of connection thats easy to lose sight of in everyday life.Its no surprise the places were fully booked almost as soon as the event went live, and were already hoping itll be repeated next year.
