Join Hope's Corner's "Tour de Hope 2022"!
It's a fun spin/cycling event where teams of 3 to 5 individuals compete to pedal the farthest on a stationary bike over 60 minutes. During this friendly competition, teams will cycle for a great local cause – Hope's Corner – and connect with others who recognize the vital services that Hope's Corner provides to underserved members of our community.
REASONS TO JOIN
- For companies, the Tour de Hope is a great team-building exercise, especially for companies whose employees have been working mostly apart during COVID. And it's a way for companies to network with other local companies while demonstrating their commitment to our local community and the vulnerable folks that Hope's Corner serves.
- For individuals, the Tour de Hope is an opportunity to work up a sweat and join other fitness do-gooders in supporting folks in our community who are struggling to get by. We'll place you on a team with other fun folks. If you recruit friends and family members to sign up, we'll try to place you on the same team.
EVENT DETAILS
- The event will be held at the El Camino YMCA in Mountain View and will use their Keiser spin bikes. Unless conditions dictate otherwise, the event will be held outdoors.
- Each team will have 1 bike. Team members will jump on and off the bike as they wish during the 60 minutes.
- We'll have music, snacks, drinks, and an emcee, who will encourage teams during the event.
- Participants will be entered in raffles for gift certificates to local restaurants and businesses.
- The winning team will get both bragging rights and the honor of having its name etched on the coveted Tour de Hope Cup – appropriately, a stainless steel measuring cup.
