5 Year Plan Launch Party and Fundraiser

Learn about how we plan to give back to Nature and our Volunteers, Participants, and Partners from 2026-2030.

Sunday, December 14th from 1-330pm at Sketchbook Brewery in Skokie.

Details

• We will have some awesome raffle prizes for folks that sign-up to be a recurring donor
• We will have some of our partner orgs present to highlight them, the work they do, and encourage some giving to their organizations
• Stick around after the event for live music provided by Sketchbook Brewery starting at 4pm

We just completed our previous strategic plan (2021-2025) and rocked it. We became more sustainable by growing our prgrams and bringing on our first paid employee. Now, we are starting our next strategic plan (2026-2030) which will be focused on Reciprocity and giving back to everyone and everything that makes OOFD possible. We aim to slow down our program growth to ensure that what we do is done with excellence and focused on our mission and our values.

So come on out to support us as we kick off this very exciting new plan in the beautiful space and with the delicious beverages at one of our most beloved partners, Sketchbook Brewery.

We'll even have some of the folks that will be riding back from our Decemberg bike camping/cabinning overnight stop by on their way back from Camp Reinberg in Palatine to bring their hearty winter bike adventure spirits to the party!

Invite a friend. All are welcome including kids. Dogs are welcome on the patio but not inside the taproom where the party will mainly be held.

And save the date for the Big Hooteanny Vol. 6 Fundraiser Party - Thursday, April 16, 2026 at Midwest Coast Brewery.
