In just one month, this highly anticipated outdoor event will meet outdoor enthusiasts. So, how is the progress going? To find out, our editor (a reporter from this magazine) contacted the organizing committee for an in-depth update.

　　According to the organizing committee, as a major event in China’s outdoor sports scene, this festival has designed a wide range of outdoor competitions and recreational games. Currently, the events, their formats, and rules have all been finalized. The specifics include: national rock climbing competition, slacklining competition, Hucun rural cultural orienteering, mountain biking competition, hiking trail cross-country race, scuba diving experience, kayaking experience, fun obstacle challenge, comprehensive outdoor team-building competition, comprehensive outdoor skills competition, mud fish-catching, mass hiking, wood sawing, and Myanmar bridge—totaling 15 major events. These cover various levels and difficulties, including professional Grade A competitions, general events, and fun experiences, suitable for outdoor enthusiasts of all experience levels as well as the general public.

　　For these competitions, the organizing committee has prepared prizes and souvenirs worth 200,000 yuan to encourage broad participation.

　　In terms of logistical support, the Ninghai County government has mobilized departments in transportation, medical care, sanitation, security, food services, and electricity to fully serve the event. Currently, the detailed support plans for each department have all been completed.

　　Regarding venue construction, permanent facilities such as the artificial climbing wall for the rock climbing competition and the command center have been completed. Other temporary facilities and competition venues are expected to be finished by early May.

For this Ninghai Outdoor Festival, the organizers—the China Mountaineering Sports Management Center—aim to achieve the “Three Major Goals and One Standard,” specifically:

　　A grand showcase of China’s outdoor sports events;

　　This Ninghai Outdoor Festival features 15 major events and nearly 30 sub-events. Covering difficulty levels from professional Grade A rock climbing competitions to leisure games, the program spans almost every outdoor category, including rock climbing, mountain racing, team-building, mountain biking, kayaking, mountaineering, trekking, and field games. It represents a major fusion of China’s outdoor industry and culture;

　　As a comprehensive stage, both the outdoor industry and culture are essential forces. This festival includes an outdoor products exhibition and sales segment, inviting over 20 domestic outdoor brands to participate. In addition to selling products, the key focus is on showcasing the brand's spirit and cutting-edge products. On the cultural front, there will be outdoor photography exhibitions, open-air outdoor movies, large-scale outdoor dance parties, and showcases by the nation’s top ten outdoor clubs.

　　A grand gathering for outdoor sports enthusiasts across the country;

　　When it comes to this outdoor festival, no group is more excited than outdoor enthusiasts. This is a nationwide get-together for outdoor lovers and an excellent platform to showcase club identities. Unlike 2012, this year’s Ninghai Outdoor Festival includes a camping component. For this, the Ninghai government has specially allocated 50 acres of land near the main venue for camping, allowing enthusiasts to gather and celebrate.

　　According to the recruitment lead of the organizing committee, this year’s sign-up numbers are significantly better than in 2012, and the expected attendance will exceed 10,000 people, with 80% from the Yangtze River Delta region and 20% from other provinces and cities across the country.

　　　A benchmark for China’s outdoor sports movement.

　　The Ninghai Outdoor Festival is a comprehensive platform and can also be described as the culmination of the development of China’s outdoor sports up to now. The models and pace of development of outdoor sports in China are fully reflected in this platform.

　　Leaders of the Ninghai Outdoor Festival organizing committee stated: the Ninghai Outdoor Festival belongs not only to Ninghai, but also to outdoor enthusiasts in the Yangtze River Delta and across the nation, as well as to all sectors of China’s outdoor industry. The 2013 Ninghai Outdoor Festival sincerely welcomes everyone to attend.
