Our Impact on the Environment

 

Our goal is to leave no trace of the event behind and minimize the impact on our landfills. No disposable plastic bottled water will be sold or allowed at Gowen Thunder.  We will have water for sale in easy-to-recycle aluminum cans through our partners at Proud Source and Liquid Death. We’ll even be serving tap beer in aluminum cups!

 

You may also bring your own water bottle or purchase an official Gowen Thunder water bottle and fill it at our refilling station.
