Event Overview

The Go for the Gold Virtual Challenge is a community-wide walk, run, bike, or swim event designed to raise funds for student needs in our community.  Since this is a virtual challenge, you pick the day and the distance...or set a goal to do a little each week; it's totally up to you.  Proceeds will support our community in these ways:

Literacy initiatives in local libraries
Our sponsored scouting troop, Troop 212
School lunch debt payoffs for students in need
