Elevate
Welcome to our Elevate series, a transformative initiative dedicated to enhancing the outdoor offerings within our community. This series features a variety of free programs designed to inspire and empower residents to explore and enjoy the great outdoors on a more intimate level.
From educational workshops that teach essential outdoor skills to vibrant community events and festivals, the Elevate series aims to foster a culture of outdoor recreation and connection.
In addition to our programs designed to get people outside, we also work hard to support and promote the elevation of the outdoor industry here in Chattanooga.
