The Outdoor Retailer Winter Market is North America’s largest winter lifestyle and sports industry gathering in the world- and Multisport Journeys is the official tee-shirt sponsor!
This trade show is not open to the public.
Here is what Multisport Journeys will be hosting at this Wholesale Show:
On Jan 19th, 20th and 21st we are hosting a happy hour at the booth (BR509) from 4-6pm. The first 10 people to the booth get a free beer mug (they just arrived and they are really cool with a custom triple of snow artwork!). There will also be a daily drawing based on business cards submitted by those that come to the happy hour at 5:25pm (must be present) of either a free fleece or wicking tee (winner’s choice). Anyone who wants during this time for $10 can design any cotton tee or hat online and MSJ will custom print their choice and mail it to them after the show AND donate $5 of the $10 to OIWC.
At Solitude Mountain at the All Mountain Demo (this is a ski day with discounted tickets obtained through Outdoor Retailer) on Jan 18th we will be giving away 500 fleece snow beanies with choice of tele or downhill skier (in multiple colors) and a few tele ski bunners too.
Then at the Salt Palace show on Jan 19, 20 & 21, we will be giving away 1000 downhill skier and snowboarder cotton tees in unisex and women’s styles – these are available at the East Entrance of the Salt Palace – but are only available to buyers and the media (not exhibitors).
