Live Storytelling Opportunity!

Out There and Common Outdoor Ground are co-hosting an evening of campfire stories in Centennial, Wyoming on June 22, 2024.

If you’re interested in telling a story, we’d love to hear from you!

Details:

  • Your story should focus on a moment/memory/experience that shaped your relationship with public land.

  • Each storyteller gets 10 minutes.

  • This is a live event, so you’ll need to tell your story in person, without reading from a script.

If you’d like to tell a story:

  • Submit your idea here by May 11.

    • Give us a synopsis of the story you plan to tell.

    • If you’re wondering where to begin, here are some questions to consider: What’s the basic storyline? What was at stake for you? What obstacles/challenges did you face? What ended up happening? How did the experience change you?

  • Note: We are asking for verbal (rather than written) story pitches so we can get a sense for your speaking style.

  • Pitch deadline: May 11, 2024. If you are selected to tell a story, we’ll let you know by May 25.
