Kelty is supporting the Eagle Mount Therapeutic Recreation charitable organization with a donation of 60 Mistral sleeping bags through “Today’s” Al Roker and his “Lend a Hand” project.


The Bozeman, Mont.-based Eagle Mount helps children and adults with disabilities, challenging them to accomplish previously unthinkable activities such as skiing, horseback riding, swimming, and more.  Kelty’s donation will help Eagle Mount’s participants experience the simple pleasure of spending a night out under the stars.


“We were thrilled for the opportunity to help out with such a great mission,” said Sue Edmiston, marketing director with Kelty.  “The work that Eagle Mount does is truly inspirational and we’re very happy to contribute to the charity’s continued success.”
