Once again, come enjoy some fresh air and exercise while you raise much needed funds for WCYC. Whether you are with your family, congregation, youth group, fellow campers or solo, you can ask family and friends to sponsor you and raise some pledges for WCYC. Also, new this year, you can choose to bike or walk!
The beautiful White River State Trail runs from Elkhorn to Burlington in southern Wisconsin. The trail is 11.4 miles, or about 25 miles round trip. Because it is also used for snowmobiles, it is wider than others and well groomed. It has lots of shade and scenic views of the countryside to enjoy on your ride. If you need some rest and refreshment on your journey, plan a stop in Lyons, WI featuring a mid-way rest area, ice cream shop and railroad depot. You can choose your distance and when you arrive. Prizes will be awarded for the highest pledges for both individuals and groups.
*Reminder – bikers will need a trail pass (16+ = $5. daily or $25 annual) If you raise more than $100 WCYC will refund your annual pass.
After your ride, stop by Jacob and Chelsea Coehoorn’s home for a meal. They live on the trail near the Elkhorn trailhead. If you’re travelling from afar some overnight accommodations may be arranged.
Contact Jim Coehoorn (coehoornj@yahoo.com or 262-215-5462) to register, get pledge forms and inquire about sleeping accommodations. You can also register at www.wcyc.org
