The Outdoor Bloggers Summit (OBS) (Link) was created in June of 2007 by seven bloggers in the outdoor niche. The OBS supports conservation efforts and encourages outdoor bloggers to get involved and become active in such efforts. The organization assists in uniting fellow outdoor bloggers and acts as a motivational medium in all outdoor pursuits. The Outdoor Bloggers Summit is led and managed by the Chairperson, Kristine Shreve.
