What sort of fundraising is the Club involved in?
We have customarily donated a share of our proceeds from the annual Spring Fling and Heatstroke 100 rides to some charity, usually local and usually bicycle-related (although the proceeds from one ride went to help victims of Hurricane Katrina that hit New Orleans in 2005). To date, most of the larger dollar bicycle-related fundraising in the Lincoln area has been trails-related, and the organization that has done that is the Great Plains Trails Network. If you have a strong interest in supporting trails development in and around Lincoln, we recommend that you join the Great Plains Trails Network in addition to us. (Please note that, while the Great Plains Trails Network’s name is similar to ours, we are unrelated organizations.
