Event Details:
Join Living Journeys on a hike to the top of Mt. Crested Butte (12,162 feet), and raise money to provide support, education and awareness to those living with cancer. The Crested Butte Summit Hike is a fund raising event to benefit people living with cancer and their loved ones. Money raised from the hike helps recipients pay medical bills and alleviate the stress of daily living expenses during their cancer treatments. The Summit Hike is hosted by Living Journeys, a non-profit organization. In 2010, Living Journeys contributed approximately $35,000 in counseling services and financial assistance to Gunnison County residents living with cancer.
PARTICIPANT CHECK-IN & LAST MINUTE REGISTRATION
New this year we will be checking participants in and doing last minute registrations the evening before the hike. You will be able to check in or register, receive your Hike booty and an ID bib so that on Saturday morning you can just show up and hike or run! Check-in will take place at The Mountain Store at 201 Elk Avenue from 4-8pm. If you miss that we will of course be registering and checking folks in on Saturday Morning at the Hike.Please remember to bring the money you collected in pledges as well as names and addresses of folks who donated.
Please encourage friends to come join us- even if they cannot hike they are welcome to come to the celebration and silent auction which begins at 11am at the base of the Silver Queen in the big white tentDY
