Rotary preparing for 10th annual Gran Fondo
The Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo (KRGF) is heading to a milestone ā the 10th annual fundraising event on Sept. 13.
And organizers say anyone thinking about participating in one of the three rides (58 km, 102 km or 152 km) should think fast as the maximum of 500 riders is filling up.
āThe ride season is just around the corner, and you wonāt want to miss out on this incredible opportunity to be part of something special. But act fastāspots for the 10th anniversary ride areĀ filling up quickly, with many others are already gearing up for an epic ride season. Donāt wait, sign up now and join the ride,ā the KRGF Volunteer CommitteeĀ noted.
New to the event this year is a new fundraising target ā the Cranbrook/Kimberley Hospice Societyās Hospice House project, which will benefit from some proceeds raised.
This standalone six-bed hospice house will provide dedicated hospice care, ensuring comfort and support for patients and their families in the Cranbrook/Kimberley region.
Funds raised by the KRGF will help this project come to fruition over the next several years.
