Speakers and Demonstrations

Quiet Adventures Symposium

February 28, 2026
Farm Bureau Pavilion at Michigan State University
Lansing, Michigan

9:00 AM to 5:30 PM

 

We are currently working to develop the call for speakers and demonstrators for QAS 2026. There will be about 30 slots for speakers and 10 or more slots for demonstrations. 

One track will be designed for those people who are novices wanting to learn more about a nonmotorized activity. For example, how to go about sea kayak touring or bikepacking. The basics of backpacking or flyfishing could be covered. We will be working to bring in new people to these outdoor adventures. 

So, keep you eyes on this webpage and our Facebook page for the Proposal Submission form to open in September. We will have the submissions open until November 1 or until all key topics are covered. More on that later. 

Put your thinking caps on to develop an exciting and thought-provoking presentation. Send us your recommendations on great speakers who you would like to see at QAS 2026.  

Get out and enjoy the Fall and Winter!
