Lead the Way 2022 took place on Friday, September 23 at the beautiful Port Pavilion on Broadway Pier overlooking the San Diego Bay. We are forever grateful to our community for joining us on this special annual celebration.

The focus of Lead the Way has always been celebrating and recognizing youth resiliency in the outdoors. We had the privilege to hear from three youth speakers about each of their authentic experiences in the Outdoor Outreach Leadership Program.

Thank to all who supported the event with a special shoutout to our host committee and sponsors. We raised over $175,000 at Lead the Way 2022 which will go right back into our general operations to conquer our mission of connecting San Diego youth to the transformative power of the outdoors. We could not do our work without YOU!

 

Silent Auction 

The view court overlooking the ocean was alive with chatter, music, tacos, and games. 

After sunset everyone headed inside to the main hall to hear from our three youth speakers share their authentic experiences with Outdoor Outreach 

Meet our AMAZING youth speakers!
