2023 Going The Distance
This is the 14th year of Going the Distance! This annual bike ride raises much needed funds to support the Boys & Girls Club of Brattleboro. The rides are 40, 60, or 100 miles in distance, supported by 2 rest areas (Turners Falls and Greenfield) as well as a support vehicle. Lunch is provided. The ride travels down Route 142 through Vernon and enters Massachusetts. From there a beautiful ride to the first rest stop in Turners Falls. The ride continues through country roads , with the second rest stop along the Green River in Greenfield, MA where lunch is provided. The final leg of the ride brings you back to the club, where a celebration awaits!
This fundraiser allows the club doors to remain open for all youth in our community, regardless of their ability to pay. No one is turned away from summer camp, after school programming, or teen club activities. We are committed to serving the most vulnerable in our community and cannot do it without the support of you! Our riders and donors have a huge impact on the club's ability to provide a safe, supportive, and fun environment for every kid in our community.
