Second Annual Get Out Fest Announced for June 26-28, 2020 in Republic, WA

February 3, 2020

Organizers of Northeast Washington's Get Out Festival have announced their 2020 dates and released a video clip with highlights from last year's event. The weekend-long outdoor adventure festival will be held at the Ferry County Fairgrounds the last weekend in June, and is free for kids 17 and under.

Last year the event had a great turnout of over 600 people, and boasted a variety of organized offsite events hosted by local clubs and Colville National Forest staff. Attendees enjoyed a Half Marathon and 5K on the Ferry County Rail Trail, free paddle board and kayak use on Curlew Lake, a pop-up skatepark, and hiking and mountain biking in the Colville National Forest.

“There's a ton of fun stuff in the works that will be revealed soon,” said local promoter Bobby Whittaker. "Right now we want to get the word out that everyone's favorite race announcer, Eddie O, will be back this year, and to keep your eyes peeled for early registration discounts on the run.”

Other features on site include tent camping with shower facilities, a climbing wall, kids' play area, food vendors, live music, and a beer garden.

Co-founder Emily Burt said, “Last year's turnout and all the smiles exceeded our expectations by far, not to mention the incredible local volunteer turnout. It really is a grassroots event that highlights one of the best places to live and play."
