TravelChair is proud to support Behind the Badge Foundation’s third annual fundraising event, Barrel Bash. Barrel Bash is a sanctioned horse barrel race, with all proceeds going to the Behind the Badge Foundation. This event was hosted on August 20th-21st and consisted of free camping, live music, and equestrian good times.

TravelChair donated a Glamping Kit for the event consisting of a Kanpai Bamboo Table and Side Canyon Table for raffle. This generous donation helps the Behind the Badge mission to support Washington State’s law enforcement agencies, families and communities after an officer has died or suffered an injury while in the line of duty. 

This event has largely grown in popularity and generosity over the past three years. In the first year, 100 people entered to be riders and raised $5,000. Year two brought in 150 riders and a whopping $23,000 donation. Year three brought in further growth with 300 riders and $30,000! Missed the event this year? Behind the Badge plans to continue this annual fundraiser and fun event in 2023 – hope to see you there!

Top 10 Best Camping Meals 2023

at TravelChair, we know that camping is a great way to get outside, enjoy nature, and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. But let’s be real, food is an important part (an also favorite part) of camping. Whether it’s a multi-day backpacking trip or a weekend car camping excursion, meals play a role in the overall experience.

Slacker Stool- 1389V

"I now keep one in my car ready for any type of activity where sitting is preferable than standing. You can insert your own activity here. The size make this easy to grab when in doubt, and has often served as a life saver.

Easily stored and low-profile. Almost no bigger or heavier than an umbrella. You will not complain taking it with you and will be rewarded by being rested and comfortable when you get up."

-Richard T.

    Joey Chair- 7789V

    "After owning this chair for a little more than half a year, I can confirm that this chair is all-around amazing. It is extremely comfortable and it is pretty light weight.

    As others have mentioned, the feet outperform other chairs that have straight feet in the sand. The feet design allows for the chair to sit on top of sand rather than sinking in.

    My friends are always jealous when I bring this chair to the park (which is every time, since its so easy to pack). So much that we often end up taking turns on it 
    If you're debating whether or not to get it, do yourself a favor and just buy it!"

    -Roger C.

    Big Kahuna- 599

    "Awesome sturdy comfortable chair. I don't know why but I am the King Champion of breaking folding camp chairs. I am 6'2" 295lbs and have broke many 300lbs rated chairs, one chair cut up the back of my knee pretty good when it failed.

    My son is 6'7" 325lbs and plays major college football, he has not even come close to breaking as many chairs as I have. Well the Big Kahuna Chair is rock solid and comfortable I don't ever see this chair failing. If it ever does I'll post it."
