Jason Climbs for a Cause with Right To Play

That's right. Lug's own co-founder and president, accompanied by Athlete Ambassador Adam van Koeverden and other Right To Play supporters, will summit Mount Kilimanjaro with the goal of raising $100,000 for the organization. They'll climb on November 6, 2012, it will take a total of six days, and "will test each individual both physically and mentally." How cool is that? Go, Jason, go!

Here's more information about Right To Play, the world's leading international humanitarian organization using sport as a tool for development.

We'll update you as Jason's training progresses and the climb approaches.

Back to School by Lug

We got the most adorable picture from one of our youngest Lug Nuts the other day. She's heading back to school (3rd grade, to be exact), and she's got her Moped, coordinating Freight Box Lunch Cube, and Eco Shopper Tote. She's set! Are you? We have a lot of great back-to-school bag options. Tell us your favorite school picks!

Boots & Hearts Photo Recap

We had a blast at Boots & Hearts! And because a picture's worth a thousand words, here's a photo recap of this awesome event!

Yup. We made special Boots & Hearts branded gear. 

We were the official bag sponsor, after all.

Our Lug village, where our team camped out each night. 

Thanks, Ami & Jason for the super-cool setup!

Here's one of our super-energetic line dancers in action. 

Thanks, Theresa, Meghan, and Karen for teaching our crowd to boot scoot and boogie!

Ami & Jason posing with Lindsay Broughton!

A little (or a lot) of rain can't get us down! No sirree!

Our tent was total country-fab.

Yay, Lug!

Sellin' some merch, y'all.

Lug Takes a Night Out to the Ballpark

We're hard workers at Lug, and sometimes we need to play hard too. So, last week we had Lug appreciation night and went to see the Toronto Blue Jays play the Texas Rangers in "our very own swanky box" (as Ami called it). 

More from Ami: "A night out like this is our little token of appreciation to say THANK YOU for all that you do. Our company has a lot to be proud of and it's your dedication and heart that you put into the company that makes us stronger and stronger each year!" 

So, THANK YOU Lug team! ... And go Jays! And Rangers! ... When you're based in Toronto and Texas, this is sort of a hard game to watch, eh?

Enjoy the pics. And before you ask, yes, that's Jose Bautista! And, yes, that's a signed card for the Lug team!

Golfing for Good

Yup. We're golfing for good tomorrow at the Joe Carter Classic Golf Tournament, and we can't wait! Not only do we get to hang out with Joe Carter himself and other celebrity golfers, but it's all for a good cause. The event raises funds for the Children's Aid Foundation, which funds programs that improve the lives of abused, neglected, and at-risk children and youth. We are trilled to be a part of this charity event for the third year in a row, and I guess all that's left to say is ... FORE!

Boots and Hearts Tomorrow!

YEE HAW!!!

Yup. That's all we've got to say about that.
