Happy Summer!

Now that summer is officially here, it's REALLY time to START training and fundraising. Seriously. September will be here before we know it. Today is the perfect day to hop on the bike and get going!

Northeast Passage's official first training day is July 17. We invite you to come to Durham, NH and ride with us! Rides start in the evening at the Northeast Passage office. We will continue training through August. If you need motivation, this is the perfect setting. We're in this together!

Also, it's not too early to sign up for the ride! Several folks are already getting a jump start on their fundraising. Visit www.firstgiving.com/nepassage to sign up today! Remember, you are eligible for GREAT prizes - including RED SOX tickets and more!

Here's a tip to get you started:
*Form a team to ride and fundraise together
Team up with friends, neighbors, coworkers, family, etc...and commit to train, ride and fundraise together. We have found that creating a competition amongst the Northeast Passage staff gets our family and friends involved, it's fun for everyone, and it makes it much less intimidating! We have consistently raised over $5,000 by doing it together.

Get out and ride!
