TAHOE CITY, Calif. - Participants of all ages and abilities on wheels are welcome to join Boarding for Breast Cancer (B4BC) as they ride 8 or 28 miles to raise funds for its breast cancer education, prevention, and survivorship programs. While raising funds participants promote the B4BC mission of staying healthy and being active.
Participants can also join in on the fun virtually by cruising down their local trail or path and posting to social media if they can’t make it in person.
To kick off the event, there will be a Community Celebration on August 5 from 12-7 p.m. at Commons Beach in Tahoe City with live music from local Tahoe talents such as Honey Vixen and Bear Whiskey as well as food and drinks, live yoga and one of B4BC’s biggest raffles yet.
The main event is taking place on August 6, with skaters meeting up at 7:30 a.m. at 64 Acres for check-in and shuttles (next to Tahoe City Transit Center). Shuttles will load in at 8 a.m. and head to Sugar Pine Point. The skating begins at 9 a.m. and will end at 1:30 p.m. at Commons Beach.
Participants can also join at the 8-mile drop-in point by meeting at noon in front of 22 Bistro at The Village at Palisades Tahoe. Following the event there will be an award ceremony and celebration at 2 p.m.
The goal is to fundraise $50,000 and B4BC looks forward to getting the community together for some fresh air and movement, all for breast cancer awareness! Register now and start fundraising here: https://www.classy.org/campaign/b4bcs-19th-annual-skate-the-lake/c484712.
