Lunchtime Discovery: Catching the Vibe

  • Wednesday, May 15, 2024
  • 12:00pm - 1:00pm

Issa Vibe Ltd.

Nature Exploration and Community Unity with Issa Vibe Adventures

Lisa Colvin, Co-Founder of Issa Vibe Adventures and Director of Community Relations

Join us to learn how three friends became the founders of the Black outdoor adventure company Issa Vibe Adventures, taking the Charlotte area outdoor community and western North Carolina by storm. These friends kick-started Issa Vibe Adventures with the goal of exposing the Black demographic to nature, but it has become so much more. They now take pride in giving back to their community by making sandwiches for the less fortunate and by teaching, training, engaging Black people to step outside of the norm, get active and try something they’ve never done before. Join us to see how this group is changing the face of the outdoors.

Join us on YouTube!
