To protect ourselves and those we love, we ask that our guests either be fully vaccinated and boosted by the wedding, or provide a negative COVID test within 72 hours of the wedding. Our priority is to ensure everyone can gather safely to celebrate. We feel this approach respects our loved ones' choices while also upholding our values and everyone's good health and enjoyment!

NOLS is a nonprofit global wilderness school that seeks to help students step forward boldly as leaders. Lindsey took her first NOLS course directly after graduating college before venturing out into the "real world". Unsure what to expect, and mostly looking to escape a Wisconsin January, Lindsey ended up learning more about about herself and what she is capable of than she ever might have anticipated. She considers it to be a formative experience, influencing how she approaches challenges and relationships everyday. Everyone should take a NOLS course (seriously - go sign up for one today!). Your donations will help support a variety of initiatives from scholarships, staff development, and sustainability programs to research and curriculum development. Your contribution helps ensure the school has a sustainable future.
