Required Components At Your Event:

1. National Partner Liaison: Please assign a person to be the National Partner Liaison. This requires reading the “Talking Points” of each National Partner. These talking points will familiarize the designated person with each partner, their company, green initiatives, products and/or services. In lieu of the National Partners being at your event, the trained National Partner liaison will serve as a representative in their absence answering questions of festival attendees.
2. National Partners Table: Please set-up a National Partners table at your event where product and literature can be displayed. Use the shipped items from the event kit to stock this table. National Partner banners can be used as a table skirt or behind the table on the wall, if provided.
3. On-stage Recognition: Please recognize the National Partners on-stage, for example, “Thank you to our National partners…. Please see the designated sponsor table in the lobby for more information about these like-minded companies supporting the use of film to inspire activism.”

Peak Design

Peak Design: In 2010, a fresh-faced, Minnesota-born, good-to-know-ya fella named Peter Dering went on a 4-month trip around the world. During this trip he learned that carrying a DSLR camera is a pain in the touchis. He returned to his San Francisco apartment and did what any responsible person would do: quit his nice job and spent 10 months designing a little thingy-dingy for carrying cameras. In May 2011 Peter launched that thingy-dingy (we now call it Capture) on a fledgling website called Kickstarter. It worked, and Peak Design was born. Peter started hiring friends, friends of friends, and random people he met at concerts. Peak Design got itself a little office in San Francisco’s Dogpatch neighborhood. Today, we make products that keep your gear organized, protected, and accessible, so you are free to adventure, commute, and create. We pride ourselves in creating true utility through elegant, thoughtful design.

Peak Design Talking points:

• In 2018, Peak Design became completely carbon neutral. We calculated our full carbon footprint – from resource extraction to manufacturing to distribution and so on (scope 1-3 emissions) – from the inception of the company and purchased carbon credits to offset them all.
• Every year we donate 1% of our top-line revenue to environmental non-profits. We consider this a self-imposed tax to help offset the waste we create.
• As a member of The Conservation Alliance, we partner with other outdoor brands to fund grassroots organizations working to protect the wild places we love.
• We are a company of backpackers, skiers, climbers, surfers, animal lovers, and people lovers. We believe strongly in protecting our natural world, and that the health of our planet and people must not be compromised for the growth of our business.
• Peak Design is committed to becoming a responsible company – to abide by that which is socially just and environmentally sustainable. We acknowledge that, as a consumer product company, we harm our planet through our use of resources in manufacturing and the creation of waste and carbon. We’re working hard to minimize our impact and offset harm done.
• We conduct third-party audits and invest in capacity building at our factories to ensure they meet social and environmental compliance standards.
• We do everything in our capacity to keep our products out of landfills. All Peak Design gear comes with a lifetime warranty. We have also launched a program for refurbishing used or damaged items so we can get them back in the hands of creative, adventurous people.

Sierra Nevada can’t provide free beer at every tour event, but we do encourage you to procure Sierra Nevada beer. Sponsorship opportunities are available to help you provide Sierra Nevada beer. If concessions at your venue handle the beer/wine, ask if they can order Sierra Nevada (they will need to order beer anyway so why not Sierra Nevada). If you have any questions regarding beer and the inclusion of Sierra Nevada Brewing at your event, please contact your On Tour Event Coordinator for details (tourcoordinators@wildandscenicfilmfestival.org, (530) 265-5961 x223.

We are extremely proud to be supported by each one of our following National Sponsors: CLIF Bar, Earthjustice, Klean Kanteen, Peak Design and Sierra Nevada Brewing Company. These like-minded companies have joined Wild & Scenic in a shared campaign to support environmental film in an effort to inspire activism and increase the groundswell of the environmental movement. Together they support all of our Tour Hosts and your environmental groups, clubs and organizations across the country to host Wild & Scenic On Tour. Our National Partners make the tour possible!  Without their support, we would not be able to share these inspiring films with our hosts and the 190+ communities worldwide. In return, we ask for your reciprocated support of their companies and current environmental campaigns.
