Waking Up to Fresh Perspectives at AdventureELEVATE 2019
Feel a deep, clean breath fill your lungs. Stretch your tight muscles — a reminder from a picture-perfect day of kayaking. Blink away the last webs of sleep as the morning sun filters through the towering fir trees and warms your skin. Capture this moment of total and complete clarity. You are AWAKE.
Welcome to upstate New York’s lake region: Birthplace of the North American conservation movement, site of pristine waterways and meandering hiking trails, and home to the 6 million acre Adirondack Park — the largest park in the United States. At its heart lies the Lake George region, a historic destination with an energetic pulse and host to AdventureELEVATE 2019.
Considered one of North America’s most important and practical professional adventure travel events, the fifth annual AdventureELEVATE invites you to turn a sharp eye toward the evolving industry dynamics affecting your professional and personal life each and every day. This intimate, tightly focused event weaves together interactive workshops, inspiring plenary discussions, and networking opportunities with plenty of time for fresh air and adventurous exploration in and around Lake George. Manifesting the event theme AWAKE, delegates will walk away feeling reinvigorated, ready to approach their businesses from a new perspective.
