On Saturday, June 1, 2024 the Melrose Family will be participating in the Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon to raise funds supporting the Adventure and Environmental Education Programs at Bethel Horizons.
Bethel Horizons is one of our family's favorite places and the Bike-a-Thon is an event we look forward to every year. We are huge fans of Horizon's Adventure & Environmental Education programs that have entertained and educated our children (and us grown-ups!) for many years. When we started participating in the Bike-a-Thon, we were a family of five on three bikes: two adult bikes with pull-behind bikes (bought used for the occasion) and a tween on their own bike. Today, everyone is on their own bike, and sometimes the kids beat us to the lunch stop! The highs and lows and everything in between - are we there yet? Cookies for dessert! It's too hot... We did it! - are all special memories.
We plan to bike about 30 miles from Mt Horeb to Ridgeway and back on the Military Ridge State Trail. We set a goal of raising $400 total from the Melrose Family. Will you support us in this goal? Your gift will directly support the Adventure and Environmental Education Programs at Bethel Horizons, helping to keep field trips affordable for schools and students. Thank you!
