Aurivo Charity Cycle / Walk for Special Olympics
Sunday June 23, Lough Key Forest Park, Boyle
Aurivo is hosting a cycle and walk for Special Olympics, the co-op’s chosen charity of the year, at Lough Key, Forest Park, Boyle on Sunday June 23.
Over the past three years, the co-op has raised in excess of €100,000 for local charities, including the Children’s Medical and Research Foundation at Crumlin Children’s Hospital, Cancer Care West and Irish Autism Action.
Cyclists have an option of a 70k route taking in Cootehall, Battlebridge, Keadue, Geevagh and Riverstown or a 40k route via Knockvicar, Ballyfarnon and the Rock of Doon. Registration is €20 for the 70k and 40k cycles and will begin at 10am and 11am respectively. As an alternative to the cycle, there will also be an 8k fun walk around Forest Park. The registration for the walk is at 12noon and is just €10.
Get some fresh air, take in the beautiful scenery and help contribute to the Charity of the Year fund by participating in one of the three activities.
There will also be discounts for the Boda Borg, Lough Key experience and the Adventure Playground for family members of participants.
Special Olympics Ireland provides year round sports training and competition for adults and children with intellectual disabilities.
