Hydro Flask, an award-winning leader in high-performance, insulated stainless steel flasks and soft good innovations and a Helen of Troy Limited (NASDAQ: HELE) company, is excited to announce its lineup of unique holiday adventures, charitable initiatives and interactive shopping experiences in conjunction with its newly launched Gift of Go brand campaign.

“We believe that the best gifts inspire us to get outside and share positive experiences that we’ll remember for years to come,” said Phyllis Grove, Hydro Flask Vice President of Marketing. “Our holiday Gift of Go campaign is an opportunity for consumers to connect with their loved ones in a more meaningful way – whether discovering unique gifts and the adventures that accompany them, opting to spend Black Friday outdoors, or giving back to the worthy organizations making a difference in our communities.”

Hydro Flask launched the Gift of Go campaign on its website earlier this month (https://www.hydroflask.com/gift-of-go) and will highlight new experiences through December across the site and the brand’s social media channels. Highlights include:

  • The Hunt for Adventure on Black Friday – Hydro Flask will encourage consumers to take a break from holiday shopping and “opt outside” with an epic scavenger hunt through New York’s Central Park on Black Friday, November 29. For a chance to win, fans can follow clues shared by two Hydro Flask ambassadors on the brand’s Instagram stories to find a prize pack worth over $900 in gear from Hydro Flask and participating brands that include Proof Eyewear, Matador, Thread Wallets, Tenkara Rod Co. and Keep Nature Wild. The Hunt For Adventure will take place live on Friday, November 29. For full contest details, visit: https://iwantproof.lpages.co/2019-hunt-for-adventure/

Each non-profit organization will be personally selected to receive $4,000 by a member of Team Hydro, the brand’s lineup of professional athletes and active lifestyle ambassadors. Big wave surfers Paige Alms and Ian Walsh will join Get Out Stay Out founder Karen Ramos in awarding their chosen recipient on Hydro Flask’s Instagram channel, unveiling one each day beginning on Giving Tuesday, December 3, and continuing through Thursday, December 5.
