Annual Salmon Run, 5K Run/3K Walk - November
Real Cheap Sports is a yearly sponsor of Patagonia's Annual Salmon Run in Ventura. Beginning in 1994, the Salmon Run has raised money for a local non-profit group chosen each year by event coordinators. The Salmon Run is Ventura County’s largest organized run. A 5K run/3K walk, it follows an out-and-back course from below the Main Street bridge north toward the mountains on a dirt road, paralleling the Ventura River. Festivities include food and beverage, silent auction, raffle, music and tabling by area environmental groups.  Adopt-A-Crag
Real Cheap Sports has been sponsoring a clean up day in a climbing/bouldering area in Santa Barbara, known as Lizard’s Mouth. A free lunch and drawing are provided. Every participant receives a ticket for showing up and one additional ticket for every bag of trash they fill. Drawing give-a-way prizes include rock climbing/bouldering clothing and gear donated by companies whose products are sold at Real Cheap Sports. The next clean up day is TBA. |
