They’ll provide expert guidance and answer your questions, so you can answer theirs!

In order to bring awareness to our cause we decided to get moving! We started our very first biking challenge. As newbies to the non-profit “challenge” event we were needlessly nervous about its success. This event was so fun and energetic. Everyone upped their game doing many more miles and getting many more donations than expected! For next year, we may be expanding the event to include running or walking or any kind of activity you like. This event is all about personal challenges. You set your goal and make it happen!
We hope you will join us when we do it again in April 2022.
