Overland Expo East is adding a truly unique event to the final expo of the year. Join us in Arrington, VA, on October 22 at 6 PM for the Overland Expo Foundation Charity Dinner for an amazing experience for a good cause. It’s a great way to kick off a weekend in the Blue Ridge Mountains, connect with the Overland Expo community, enjoy an incredible dinner, and support the Venture Unknown Foundation all at the same time.
Meet the Chef

This dinner is led by a familiar face at Overland Expo. Chef Lee “Natty” Trebotich. Chef Lee is the founder of Food For Adventures, and he has over 25 years of cooking and teaching experience around the world. As a Gulf Coast native, he understands the deep relationship between food and the land, and he’ll bring this experience, his expertise as a biologist, botanist, and forager, together to craft a unique menu that incorporates wild-foraged ingredients, Southern classics, and handcrafted recipes. We’ve been lucky enough to sample Chef Lee’s dishes during several sessions he taught at prior Overland Expos, and trust us, everyone at this dinner is in for a real treat.
Supporting the Venture Unknown Foundation

The Overland Expo Charity Dinner benefits Venture Unknown Foundation, a nonprofit organization committed to protecting our public lands through conservation, restoration, education, and responsible recreation. From restoring campsites and cleaning up trails to partnering with the U.S. Forest Service on stewardship initiatives, Venture Unknown Foundation is helping ensure that future generations can enjoy the same trails, forests, and wild places that inspire us today.

Another amazing Overland Expo Foundation Raffle

We all know that the Saturday night Overland Expo Foundation Raffle is a great time for all, and thousands of dollars in prizes are given out at each event. The charity dinner adds another chance for attendees to win big while still supporting the work of the Overland Expo Foundation. The dinner will feature a 50/50 auction, with proceeds split between the foundation and a lucky attendee who will walk away with a cash prize. This is another way attendees can help the Overland Expo Foundation increase its impact.
This opportunity is exclusive to Overland Expo East campers and exhibitors, and space is limited, so don’t delay. If you already have tickets, you can add the Overland Expo Foundation Charity Dinner to your ticket HERE, and if you don’t have tickets, you can get them now and add the dinner during checkout. We hope to see you at Overland Expo East next month. It’s an incredible event that just keeps getting better.
