1,000 Miles. One Mission. To Support Galilee.
Galilee Food Services Director Chadwick Clark undertook an extraordinary six-day cycling challenge to raise $20,000 for Galilee’s programs and projects.
On Oct. 14 at 5:30 am, with hugs, well wishes, and plenty of encouragement from the Galilee staff, Chadwick set off on The Great Pedal: a 1,000-mile solo bike ride from Galilee to Las Vegas and back. He arrived back at Galilee on Oct. 20 at 9:10pm, and was greeted by the Galilee staff with more hugs and shouts of ‘Congratulations!’
This bike ride of physical endurance had a heartfelt mission to support Galilee. Chadwick set an ambitious goal of raising $20,000 in sponsorships, with $10,000 already committed in pledges before his departure. Along the way, he rode approximately 175 miles each day and a staggering 68,000 feet of elevation gain—more than twice the height of Mount Everest.
The Great Pedal is about much more than miles and elevation. It is an opportunity to rally around Galilee and invest in the programs and projects that make its mission possible.
Chadwick set out to raise $20,000 through sponsorships. Every additional donation brings Galilee closer to that goal and helps turn his extraordinary effort into meaningful support for the community.
