It’s time to hop on a bike and make a difference! 💙 The fourth annual Pedal for a Purpose is happening March 28th from 7 AM to 12 PM, and we want YOU to be part of this incredible event supporting our Y Cancer Survivorship programs.
Here's how it works
- Grab 5 friends, family, or colleagues for a day of fun and fitness. All team members will bike together for one hour during the event.
- Don’t have a team? No problem! Sign up as an individual.
- Choose your time slot and location (Dahl or Houser Y)
- Set up your fundraising page and start spreading the word
- Show up, have fun, and pedal for a purpose!
You don’t have to be a cyclist or even a Y member to join. Just bring your energy and passion for supporting cancer survivors in our community.
NEW this year
Join us for a Survivor Walk at 8 AM at both the Dahl and Houser Y locations. Cancer survivors are encouraged to bring family and friends to join them for a walk around the Y, to honor their journey with cancer. Members and non-members are encouraged to join. Light refreshments will be available after.
