NAMI Racine's 2010 Bike 'n Hike Event

The NAMI Bike ‘n Hike will take place on Sunday, September 12, 2010. The NAMI Bike ‘n Hike is more than a fundraiser; it’s a day for the community to join with individuals and family members whose lives are touched, briefly for some and a lifetime for others, by mental illness. Since 2002, by taking part in the NAMI Ride, participants have raised over $85,000 to help those in Racine County whose lives are affected by mental illness. Again this year walkers can enjoy a 4k (2.5 mile) hike/walk through Waterford High School’s wooded Ecology Center and Cross Country course. Bicycle riders will be able to travel the beautiful rolling hills of the Southeastern Wisconsin countryside. The bike tour offers your choice of 10, 35 or 60-mile routes. Families will especially enjoy the 10-mile route along a protected bike trail through historic Col. Heg Park. The 35 and 60-mile tours run along paved country roads with rest stops along the way. Bike and hike options start and finish at Waterford High School, where lunch and entertainment are provided. Pre-registration discounts are available, please visit our website for details www.namiracine.org/bikenhike or call NAMI Racine at (262) 637-0582. Online registration is available.
