SUMMARY:2020 OT Challenge Hike
DESCRIPTION:The OT Challenge Hike is not just a great time\, it’s our largest fundraiser.  After only three years\, the event has generated $75\,000 to help maintain Missouri’s longest trail. \n\n\n\nWhat is it? The Challenge Hike is a fundraiser AND hike. Each registered hiker commits to raising $1\,250 for the Ozark Trail Association and participates in a 17 mile hike. \nWhat if I can’t hike 17 miles? Don’t worry! You can still raise funds for the OTA and be a “virtual” hiker. What a great way to support the organization! \nWhat’s in it for me? The best part of this fundraiser is the group of committed hikers! You’ll be treated to a festive weekend with free camping\, free food\, fellowship\, campfire\, music and all sorts of OTA/Challenge Hike schwag. \nWhere is the hike? The hike is scheduled to start at Bass River Resort\, near Steelville\, Missouri. \nHow do I get involved? If you’d like to be a part of this exciting event\, email otchallengehike@ozarktrail.com for more information.
