For those of you who are not familiar with Pack Rat, it is an outdoors store where you can find gear and equipment for all your outdoor needs. Pack Rat is located off Gregg Street about 10 minutes from the University of Arkansas campus. The store is unique in appearance with a pond in front and a building constructed completely with recycled wood from trees that were destroyed in a forest fire.
What people do not know is how involved the owners and employees are in the Fayetteville community. Pack Rat hosts events and workshops, such as survival clinics, for children and adults that benefit the community.
On Friday, I called the store and spoke to one of the managers and explained to him my intentions of profiling the store and he was more than willing to help. Next week I will visit the store to discuss Pack Rat’s involvement in the community.
Stay tuned for next week when I reveal my findings!
