Summer is all about making memories outside, and that’s exactly what Solo Stove’s Project S’more Outdoors is all about.
This July, Solo Stove is helping bring more families together around the campfire. Every eligible July purchase helps fund Campfire Experience Kits, giving kids and families even more opportunities to unplug, gather outside, and enjoy the simple joy of roasting s’mores together.
I’m excited to be partnering with Solo Stove for their inaugural Project S’more Outdoors event with the Boys & Girls Club of Lancaster later this month, where we’ll celebrate the power of spending time outdoors and making memories as a community.
