The initial Row for the Cure took place in 1994 on Portland’s Willamette River as a way for the rowing community to support runners and walkers participating in the Rose City’s Race for the Cure. That first regatta raised a modest $1,500.
Today, with events in 15 U.S. states and Germany, Row for the Cure has blossomed into a multi-sport event that includes athletes of all ages representing four sports; rowing, canoe/kayak, dragon boat and Native American paddling.
With over 20 cities having hosted a Row for the Cure, participants now raise over $300,000 annually, rowing and paddling together to save lives in their local communities.
We are going to be at the Pocock Rowing Center providing nutritious / delicious Bear Naked parfaits to these amazing athletes all working together for a great cause. Grab your man-powered water vehicle and join them!

180° South: Conquerors of the Useless
A Film Inspired by the Legendary 1968 Trip by Yvon Chouinard & Doug Tompkins
After seeing footage of a 1968 roadtrip made by Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard and friends from Southern California to Patagonia, a young American adventurer named Jeff Johnson spent the next 10 years dreaming of following their footsteps. In 2007, Jeff dropped everything to finally fulfill his dream. Setting sail on what would become a six-month traverse of North and South America, he hoped to find unclimbed mountains and unridden waves. But as he traveled, his eyes opened to the environmental disasters that threaten these special places, and those who are working to save them.
Join us at Patagonia for this free event. Part of our Adventure Film Series.

The Paddle for Autism Awareness is paddling it’s way into Seattle. Started in the summer of 2005 by Renee Beus, an ACA Kayak instructor, and Molly Ola Pinney, Founder of the Global Autism Project drove over 7,000 miles in a 1989 Volvo Sedan to kayak with children with autism and spread the word about the Global Autism Project from coast to coast.
Kell’s Irish Pub is proud to be the location of the Seattle kick off event which includes a live auction! How cool is that? Up for grabs will be some limited edition Bear Naked reusable grocery bags filled with even more awesome Bear Naked swag! Including a one-of-a-kind custom made Bear Naked Terracycle shorts (size small). As well as many other awesome prizes.
See you there! 7 pm – 10:30 pm

The 2010 Paddle for Autism Awareness‘ stop number four in an 11 city tour, is our very own 206. Seattle is increasing awareness to autism in a fun and healthy way. Doesn’t it just make sense that Bear Naked join in on this? In case you did not know autism is a disorder of neural development characterized by impaired social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior, it is believed that it affects up to 2 in 1,000 people (thanks wikipedia).
Saturday from 10 – 4 Northwest Outdoor Center – nwoc – will be hosting the Paddle for Autism Awareness. Grab your life vest and be ready for a great day in the sun on the water! If you don’t have a life vest I’m sure NWOC can provide you with one.
