Fundraising
There is no minimum fundraising target but riders are encouraged to raise at least $750 (4 day ride) or $400 (2 day ride) towards local United Way charities. Funds raised will be reflected in the rider’s overall ministry annual United Way campaign totals. We will help you with ideas and materials to fundraise through your personal and professional networks.

What You Need To Know
This is a self-supported ride. Each person will require to cover their own expenses (i.e. equipment, spare tires, travel to/from start/end points) and shared expenses (i.e. food, Support And Gear (SAG) vehicle, accommodations), which are typically quite minimal.  Liability waivers are required to be signed. This is a team effort, everyone is expected to help at camp with setup/tear-down, cooking and clean-up.
