Family
Bicycle Ride Fund Raiser for the Solar Walk
- We
are raising money to create a
permanent outdoor exhibit, a solar walk. A
solar walk is a scaled down model of our solar system.
It gives the participants the opportunity to walk or drive from the
sun to Pluto. Through this
experience, participants gain a better understanding of the
earth’s location in and the immense size of the solar system.
- We are holding a family
bicycle ride/run/walk in Starkey
Wilderness
Park
on
Saturday, November 27, 2010
. Participants will
go down the trail that leads from the park to the Suncoast Trail and
then back. We will use the
solar walk idea along the route. Signs
will be posted showing the where solar bodies are in our scaled down solar
system, from the sun to Pluto.
Pre-registered riders will be provided with a t-shirt and the option of having
dinner, by Garden of Eden catering. After
the ride, Pasco
County’s Astronomy Club is hosting a star gazing event, open to the riders as
well as the public.
- For a donation of $20,
cyclists will receive a t-shirt, rest stop refreshments and dinner.
- For a donation of $50, a
family of up to five cyclists will receive t-shirts, rest stop
refreshments and dinner.
- For a donation of $15,
cyclists will receive a t-shirt and rest stop refreshments.

are in great need of supportive private donors and corporate sponsorship
