Bike/Walk-A-Thon

Come and cycle or walk in Sherwood Park on Friday July 4 to raise money for MCC! All events begin and end at Sherwood Park's Millennium Place. Your $20 registration fee includes a T-shirt and one ticket for a beef supper which begins at 4:30 PM.

You can join a 60 km or 100 km Bike-A-Thon which will take you through a wide variety of beautiful rural countryside. There will be support vehicles as well as rest stops along the way. Lunch will be provided for both groups at an acreage southeast of Sherwood Park. Kids and those interested in a shorter route are invited to participate in a 17 km Bike-A-Thon on bike paths throughout Sherwood Park. A stop at MacDonald's is included in this ride.

If you enjoy walking you are invited to join a 5 km or 9 km Walk-A-Thon on urban paths in Sherwood Park. A snack will be provided at the half-way point for the 9 km event.
