🚨 TREK FUNDRAISER: PLAINS vs. PLATEAU CHALLENGE!

🔥 Which region will rise to the challenge and take home the ultimate team prize?!

📅 The Challenge:
Start: Monday, Oct 19 at 8:00 AM
End: Friday, Oct 23 at 8:00 PM

Two generous members of our NICA community — one from Plains and one from Plateau — have pledged to support their regions by matching donations from fellow community members!

💰 Here’s how it works:
* Plains vs. Plateau: Donations to each region will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $1,000 per region!
* Race to the Goal: The first region to reach its $1,000 matching goal unlocks an exciting opportunity for participating teams!
* The Ultimate Team Prize: Every team in the winning region with athletes participating in the fundraiser will be entered into a random drawing. The winning team will get to keep 100% of the funds their team raises throughout the entire 2026 Trek Giveaway Fundraiser campaign! 🤯

✨ Every donation counts, and every participating team has a chance to win!

The winning team will be selected at random from the first region to reach its $1,000 matching goal, provided the team has athletes and community members participating in this friendly fundraising challenge.

❤️ Let’s rally our NICA community, support our athletes, and see which region comes out on top!

Trail work is about so much more than earning NICA hours. 🚵🌲

Our kids spend countless hours riding these trails, but trails don’t maintain themselves. Someone has to clear the limbs, repair erosion, move rocks, pick up trash, and take care of the places we get to enjoy.

That’s why Trail Corps is such an important part of NICA. It teaches our athletes that being part of a community means giving back to it—not just benefiting from it.

They learn that good things require work. That shared spaces belong to all of us, and taking care of them is everyone’s responsibility. And that a few hours of their time can make something better for the next rider, hiker, runner, or family who comes along.

Yes, those hours help our team earn funding. But the bigger win is raising kids who understand stewardship, service, responsibility, and community.

We’re not just building better trails. We’re building better humans. ❤️🚲🌲
