It marks a year of exciting events in Colorado, including:  Aspen Food and Wine Classic (June 14-16) and Xfinity Birds of Prey (December 6-8).

Greg Bloom, Sponsorship Sales Director for the Vail Valley Foundation (http://www.vvf.org/), mentioned his utter amazement when he, "brought WILD TONIC® on board for the Mountain Games with a small 10x10 vendor space in 2018 and it turned out to be Wild Tonic's  biggest consumer facing sampling experience ever.  With 80,000 Mountain Games-goers creating seemingly endless lines, it didn't take long for WILD TONIC's Raven Bivanco and I to realize that WILD TONIC® had hit the jackpot with our event attendee demographic. The healthy and active mountain lifestyle enthusiast, it turns out, is the perfect fit for the brand."

Bloom continued "I knew by the end of last year's Mountain Games that I had to make this brand a major partner of the Vail Valley Foundation because everyone---from our staff, attendees, donors, and athletes----was going to "fall in WILD Love®" as they say.  I myself couldn't get enough of the refreshing flavors; I love the WILD TONIC® brand and I wanted to make it available at all of our events and venues. And the rest, is history!  Besides," Bloom concluded, "WILD TONIC® has one of the friendliest and most grateful brand teams I've ever worked with; I look forward to all that we have to accomplish and celebrate together!"

Pro Kayaker Emily Jackson echoed Bloom's enthusiasm, attesting that WILD TONIC® made a lasting impression with her, as well.  She described the sheer delight at tasting WILD TONIC® at a GoPro Mountain Games athlete forum earlier this year: .  "While the sponsors of the GoPro Mountain Games were asking us about our experience as athletes," she said "I found myself completely preoccupied by this big bucket of beautiful blue bottles!  I was so stoked to learn it was Kombucha, as I'm a huge fan!  WILD TONIC® is so refreshing and yummy, that over the course of the day, I made a veritable Eiffel Tower of empty bottles!  Although I may have embarrassed my husband with the sheer number of empty bottles, I certainly gained attention of WILD TONIC®!"

"And I love how experimental WILD TONIC® is as a company," Jackson continued "they aren't afraid to try unusual things.  Their flavor combinations are decidedly different and absolutely delicious!  Most of all," she added "WILD TONIC® is refreshing; it actually perks you up!  Unlike energy drinks, WILD TONIC® is clean, pure, and energizing without the crash.  So, if you want to enjoy the whole GoPro Mountain Games Experience," Jackson concluded "drink something that keeps you going.  Drink Wild!®"
