Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon

In a world where people spend hours on screens and minutes outside, you can reverse that and help people spend hours outside and minutes on screens

Join us for the 39th Annual Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon on Saturday, June 1, 2024! Participants and volunteers come together to raise money for, and raise awareness about the Adventure & Environmental Education Programs at Bethel Horizons providing hundreds of field trips to thousands of students each year.  Everybody deserves a transformative experience in nature.

The Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon starts at the Mount Horeb Train Depot and participants ride on the Military Ridge State Trail between Mount Horeb and Barneveld and back or Mount Horeb and Ridgeway and back, giving the option of a short ride, a long ride or anything in between.

The ride is supported with rest stops along the way and a lunch will be provided.

Your donations keep the Adventure & Environmental Education Programs at Bethel Horizons going and growing by providing transformative experiences in nature for those we serve.  No donation is too small - each and every dollar counts.

Thanks to your support and generosity last year, the Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon raised an impressive $44,000, providing thousands of students high-quality outdoor education programming at an affordable cost. This year, our goal is to reach even higher and raise $50,000, which would be the first time in the Bike-A-Thon's 39-year history to hit that number. Your support directly allows Horizons to continue offering high-quality programming at an affordable rate. Your gifts help students develop important skills such as leadership, teamwork, and resilience through outdoor experiences. Let's come together to make this our most impactful year yet and continue to provide affordable, life-changing outdoor education to students in our community!

When you participate in the Bethel Horizons Bike-A-Thon, you become a vital part of Bethel Horizons. You are a part of community that fosters a better understanding of God, Self, Others, and Nature.
