Eagle Eye's 6th Annual Hike-A-Thon!

Hike3September 20th, 2008
Tully Lake in Royalston, MA


Join the fun!

Help us raise $35,000 by hiking at Tully Lake! Not much of a hiker? Then participate in this year's Family Festival. Funds will help Eagle Eye continue to offer urban young people opportunities to develop a deep connection to nature, become stewards of our environment, and explore a possible green industry career.

The Hike-A-Thon is Eagle Eye's major fundraising event of the year. It has been successfully hosted at Tully Lake Campground for the past 6 years.


Hiking

Hiking at this event is a great way to spread the word about Eagle Eye's mission. Bring friends and family to join the fun! Eagle Eye supporters commit to raising funds to support Eagle Eye's environmental education and career bridging programs. Which are designed to instill awareness, leadership and responsability in urban youth ages 14-24.


Hikers can choose easy, moderate or more challenging hiking trails of 5, 8 or 15 miles.
