The Return of the KS Wild Annual Dinner

KS Wild's notorious Annual Dinner is back!

Saturday, October 19th

at the Historic Ashland Armory

After 4 years of global pandemic, wildfire, and rebuilding community, we are excited to bring back the notorious KS Wild Annual Dinner! This is an event where generations of environmental advocates come together to share stories, see old friends, make new friends, and connect to this place we love—the Klamath-Siskiyou. We have worked hard to bring back the meaningful event that honors our grassroots beginnings and welcomes our community in to celebrate our collective actions and victories for the wild. We hope that, if you have the means, you join us for this evening of gathering over food, music, and celebration.
