Half of All Proceeds from Rafting Trips Donated to Local Nonprofits
Sun Country Tours will kick off its popular Raft n’ Brew whitewater rafting trips Wednesday, June 29, in partnership with local breweries and non-profit organizations.
This special edition of the Big Eddy Thriller whitewater rafting adventure includes a post-trip, complimentary beer tasting of local craft beers on the Sun Country Tours patio. Raft n’ Brew is available every Wednesday at 4:30pm through August 24.
Each week, Sun Country Tours partners with a different local brewery and donates half of all proceeds from each Raft n’ Brew to various local charities. Tickets for Raft n’ Brew are $59 each, and guests must be 21 or older.
“We are excited to combine two iconic Bend experience–whitewater rafting and craft beer–to create a unique experience for visitors and locals,” said Sun Country Tours President Dennis Oliphant. “The added bonus of being able to help local charities with their fundraising supports our business philosophy of giving back to the community whenever we have the opportunity.”
