Chelsea Goodreau with Portage Health Foundation’s Communications and Marketing, said, “We’re looking at trying to highlight all the resources that we have locally for silent sport activities. We’re looking at trying to help promote all that we can do economically to help drive our community as well, and then we’re actually looking at using it as a fundraiser.”
Money raised will be used to fund outdoor recreation and wellness grants. It’s also a great way to jump start the summer.
Goodreau said, “We’re also using this as a way of allowing different organizations to help promote all that will take place throughout the summer.”
