On Saturday, August 21, 2010 Sonya and I will take part in the Mt. Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb. This event, a 7.6 mile all-uphill race to the summit of the highest peak in the northeastern United States, is the largest annual fundraiser for Tin Mountain Conservation Center.
Call us crazy, but we decided to make it more of a challenge by racing on our tandem. That's us in the photo during the Belfast Time Trial.
You can help us support a great environmental organization, Tin Mountain Conservation Center, which has provided environmental education to over 75,000 students, campers and individuals throughout schools and communities in Northern New Hampshire and western Maine for over 30 years.
All donations are greatly appreciated. If you can't donate, wish us luck!
Tin Mountain Conservation Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit providing education programs that foster greater awareness and understanding of the natural environment for school children, adults, and families. Since it was founded in 1980 by Barbara Rockwell Henry and David Henry in Jackson, NH, the Center has offered hands-on programs in the schools, at summer camps, and within communities throughout northern New Hampshire and western Maine. Each year Tin Mountain works with over 5,000 in public and private school, in addition to its homeschool programs. To see a sample of our work with students, click here.
