Description
Join us for an exhilarating cycling event that not only promises an unforgettable weekend but also makes a significant impact on the health and well-being of our community! Pedalpalooza is a fundraising initiative dedicated to supporting Family Health Partnership Clinic, a lifeline for the uninsured residents in our area.
Pump up those tires, dust off your helmets and embark on a scavenger hunt type journey throughout the county at your pace, start and finish wherever and whenever you like making sure to stop in as many participating establishments along the way! Pedalpalooza is a community-driven event focused on raising funds to ensure that everyone in our community has access to essential heart disease screenings, preventive care, education and chronic disease management. But also partners with local small businesses to give special discounts, raffles or offers to our Pedalpalooza-ers. Check out some of your favorite places and maybe find a few new ones to patronize! You will receive access to the Goosechase App, Directory of locations, official wristband and Tshirt. You can bike, walk, run, drive- whatever works for you- there is no wrong way to Pedalpalooza.
Why Pedalpalooza?
