Biking event to raise school funds

The Santa Cruz Sentinel has been spreading the word about our upcoming SVEF Mt. Charlie Challenge Ride for the past two weeks. Here’s what they are saying:

The Scotts Valley Educational Foundation Mountain Charlie Challenge will kick off at 8 a.m. April 26 to raise money for Scotts Valley schools.

The program has raised more than $100,000 for school programs since it began five years ago. Riders may bike 50K or 100K distances starting at Skypark in Scotts Valley .

There will be a family lunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. with live music and dancing. Money can be raised through corporate sponsorships and raffle ticket sales, but riders are also asked to raise $500 individually.
