Participation requires a minimum donation or pledge of $50. You can pay that on your own, or raise it through pledges from family and friends by asking people to pledge per mile to your effort. Since this event is intended as a fundraiser for Luke5Adventures, we hope that you will try to raise as much money as possible as a “pay it forward” for other hikers to enjoy hikes in the future.
