The Power
Of Story
For The
Tetons.

We’re firm believers in the power of story and the ability for it to bring about change for the better among people and communities. The Teton region is full of organizations and people all working to make life a better  and more equitable place for those who live here, and this event will support these efforts. We have chosen three benefitting nonprofits in Teton Valley that participants will be able to support after being inspired through story.
