The Campbell Center announced its inaugural bike race fundraiser scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 26 at Hoover High School in Glendale. Open to all bike spinning enthusiasts and others who include sports and fitness in their lifestyle, the event is sure to generate much excitement and spirit of friendly competition for a good cause. Adding to the day’s fun will be several of The Campbell Center clients who will be there to cheer on their respective teams.

“We are very excited to bring this event to The Campbell Center for the first time this year and can almost feel the buzz from our supporters about their anticipation to be part of such a great cause and help raise funds for the TCC mission,” said Jodi Deranja, event chair and member of The Campbell Center Foundation board of directors. “It is our plan to offer this opportunity in the coming years, building of what we anticipate to be a great success in this inaugural year.”

Teams will be competing for various prizes throughout the day. Each team comprises 10 members and each member will be raising a minimum of $200 to qualify for the race. To ensure that each team member succeeds in her/his fundraising and efforts, each team will be led by a team captain whose role is to motivate, guide, inform and, in general, be a cheer leader for their respective teams.
