You can also join us for a matchstick Movie on November 8. And if you’re considering making a donation at the start of the season, read more below about a special gift for $250+ donors!

Considering making a donation to ESAC again this season? We want to let you know we will have a special gift for those donors of $250 or more that donate by November 21. We have 32L Patagonia Black Hole backpacks with the ESAC logo. We plan to have this gift for you at the kickoff – if you can’t make it in person, we will work out getting it to you afterward!
We have a limited number of backpacks – we will give these out in the order donations are received.
Not sure if a cash donation is in the cards for you at this moment? That’s ok, there are lots of ways to support ESAC – check out more details on our website.
Check out some of our merch – we are cleaning out before we add more to the inventory this fall. We know you’re also wondering about those touring hats – a restock is planned for the kickoff. And if you’re looking for a women’s sun hoodie, we still have most sizes available in rum raisin color!
Check out our 24-25 Season Report
Have fun and stay safe out there.
