Adventure 16 Wallaroo Sun Hats NBC Del Mar Races

Monday morning, July 16th 2007, Adventure 16 and Wallaroo Hats were featured on NBC San Diego’s News in the Morning program. The segment focused on outdoor hats that offer UPF sun protection and are crushable for no-worry travel.

Del Mar Horse Racing opens Wednesday July 18th and the San Diego sun can be intense. Fans traditionally wear attractive hats that don’t necessarily protect them from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays. Anyone who plans to spend more than 15 minutes outdoors in the sun should consider wearing UPF sun protection hats.

Nellie Warner, a manager at the Adventure 16 Solana Beach store, was interviewed by KNSD morning anchor Marianne Kushi. Marianne was quick to note that selecting the right size and color was not easy. Nellie explained that just as they do with backpacks and hiking boots, Adventure 16 retail associates help customers choose the best size, sun protection level, and color for your unique physical type.

Adventure 16 is known as one of the best outdoor outfitters in the United States. Their dedication to providing customers with the finest products, accurate first hand information, and plenty of inspiration, has guided them since their start in 1962. Adventure 16 offers inspiring slide shows and educational clinics at store locations. A-16 has seven retail locations, a wholesale division specializing in accessories for backpacking, camping, climbing and adventure travel, and most recently an online store.

The Wallaroo Hat Company was founded by Stephanie Carter and Lenya Shore in April 1999 after they discovered the Aussie secret to sun protection with style: colorful UPF 50+ crushable fabric hats. Wallaroo Hat Company is based in Boulder, Colorado. The company was recently awarded the “Best of Denver” from Westword magazine and was listed as a Top Women-Owned Business in the Daily Camera.
