The great Bob get-together! Gather with fellow wilderness enthusiasts and help us celebrate an unforgettable summer season in the Bob. Our annual gala includes live music, food, drinks, family friendly activities and special guests – plus incredible silent and live auctions filled with art, outdoor gear, adventures and getaways, gifts, and so much more!

Don’t miss this rip-roaring good time to help us raise essential funds for hands-on stewardship in the spectacular Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex!

Tickets: $40 / Kids 10 and under are free*

*Please still “purchase” a free ticket for your kiddos, so we can get an accurate head count!
