Donate now to support cyclists riding to send kids to 4-H camp

Training is underway for a 250-mile bike ride across West Virginia to raise scholarship money to help send youths to 4-H camp programs. The 25 riders participating in “Outspoken for 4-H” hope to raise $20,000 by the event kickoff on June 13.

Celebrating its 10th year, the ride has enjoyed much success ensuring campers can attend camp at a low cost. Over the past 10 years, Outspoken cyclists have raised more than $50,000.

Many 4-H’ers take part in the event as riders and as volunteers. Twenty-two cyclists crossed the state last year, stopping at county 4-H camps to promote healthy lifestyles and show their 4-H pride. The ride finishes at Older Members Conference State 4-H Camp at WVU Jackson’s Mill near Weston, W.Va.
