The Outdoor Gear Swap is a community event to recycle outdoor equipment and get gear into the hands of people who want it. We also often have a variety of gear well beyond skis. Last year, we had snowboards, bikes, and even a kayak.

11 a.m. early-bird admission of $10. The rest of the swap, with free admission, will be from noon-1 p.m. The event is open to the public.

The gear swap fits with our environmental focus for fundraising. People can bring gear that they no longer use, and maybe instead of buying all new gear, they can just ‘reuse’ by finding what they need. It is great for the seller, buyer, and the environment.
For people purchasing items, Venmo, PayPal, card, cash or checks (with valid ID) are the only forms of payment. The UW Nordic ski program will keep a 20 percent commission on all sold items, and donations will be accepted.
We need your used gear that is filling your garage! We can’t sell what we don’t have! To sell gear preregister items to be sold by going to the gear swap page at www.uwyonordic.com/gear-swap.html.

Gear check-in is Friday, Oct. 31, from 4-7 p.m. at the Laramie Railroad Depot. Sellers must pick up unsold gear Saturday after the swap between 2-3 p.m. Any unsold items not retrieved after 3 p.m. will be donated.
All information about the event, including items that will not be accepted during the gear swap, can be found at www.uwyonordic.com/gear-swap.html.
