SUMMARY:John Beede
DESCRIPTION:Days\n			 :\n				Hours\n			:\n				Minutes\n			:\n				Seconds\n	TICKETS\n					 \nMotivational Speaker\nJohn Beede\n February 17\, 2026 \n   6:30 PM \n   Sturges-Young Center for the Arts \n   Main Stage \nLearn More \n						 \nAdventurer John Beede has been struck by lighting\, attacked by a 5-foot iguana\, and he once did the hokey-pokey in the eye of a hurricane. He’s been swimming with Hammerhead\, Great White\, and Whale sharks. He was even trapped in the Indonesian jungle between warring tribes and the world’s largest goldmine. His travels have taken him to 56 countries and every continent including Antarctica. \nIn his presentation\, you’re going to learn the peak performance and leadership lessons that John learned while pursuing his life’s biggest dream; reaching the summit of Mount Everest. After two months of climbing\, 9 months of full-time preparation\, and 17 years of mountaineering\, he planted his trusty ice axe into the summit of Mount Everest. Subsequently\, he was featured on TV’s 60 Minutes and media outlets across the globe. \nHe is not sponsored. All funding for his expeditions comes from building and selling his own companies. Additionally\, he has authored two books\, including Climb On! Success Strategies for Teens and The Mini-Manual for Becoming Super Awesome. Together\, they have sold over 50\,000 copies. After his talk\, you’re welcome to purchase a copy of your own and take your picture with this extraordinary gentleman. \nGet ready to laugh and be inspired. John’s integration of outdoor adventure stories and powerful success strategies are going to catapult you to a new level of personal achievement. \n					 \nSponsored by:
