The Production Team
The Wagner Subaru Outdoor Experience is produced by Five Rivers MetroParks under the leadership of the Outdoor Recreation Division which includes Outdoor Connections Director, Amy Dingle, Outdoor Recreation Program Manager Brent Anslinger; Outdoor Recreation Coordinators Chris Buck, Jordan Hart, Andrea Reed and Tyler Mittlestead, Specialists Kelly Kingery and Thomas Nugent. This team uses their extensive personal and professional outdoor adventure experience to develop creative event content that brings that “mountain town appeal to your backyard”. After months of work, the vision is executed on the ground with support from throughout Five Rivers MetroParks.
Support
Over 100 volunteers and dozens of staff from Park Operations Staff to Law Enforcement Rangers to Marketing, Philanthropy, and Business Finance help bring all pieces of the event together. Everyone works with community groups, clubs, organizations, retailers, athletes, non-profits, and national manufacturers to build the coolest weekend of the year when Dayton truly showcases itself to the region as “The Outdoor Adventure Capital of the Midwest!” and helps introduce new people to the benefits of the outdoor adventure lifestyle.
We are thankful for all the efforts to make the Wagner Subaru Outdoor Experience the Midwest’s premier outdoor adventure festival!
