Announcement:

Given the current and projected air quality in the South Placer area, Trek Management has decided to postpone the Trek.

The new date will be Saturday, October 3rd. Same place. Same times. Just better air quality (fingers crossed)!

Our Trekker family has gone absolutely ABOVE AND BEYOND this year to support us. Your encouragement, support, and kicking that fundraising into high gear has been both a relief and a gift. Our silent auction is doing well, jerseys are being sold, and Trekkers are fundraising. The help this is providing to our organization in a year that is bringing one ‘surprise’ after another is beyond appreciated. So, thank you. We, literally, could not run our programs at their current levels without you. 😊

A few details to note:
• The silent auction will close on the regularly scheduled date/time of Sunday, Sept. 13th at 8pm. https://sacbreathe.org/events/breathe-bike-trek/silent-auction/

• The jersey sales will be extended until October 4th https://app.etapestry.com/onlineforms/BreatheCaliforniaofSacramento/trekjersey2020.html

• Registration will be extended until October 3rd (day of)

• Fundraising incentive deadline will be extended to September 28th.
