5 Reasons to Rise + Climb
01 September, 2022
As we approach the Fall season and get back to routine it's an opportunity to create some new goals for ourselves and our well-being. The Rise and Climb series has been created for those in our hiking community who are seeking a new challenge for themselves --- which they can do on their own or with friends. This program is open to anyone who would like to join us for the day or for the entire series.
Presented by Helly Hansen the Rise + Climb series encourages hikers to achieve their health and happiness goals by putting wellness first. Whether it's burning more calories, taking more steps in a day, socializing with friends or creating new healthy habits, we want to help you rise.
Arrive at the Summit by 12 pm on Saturday and Sunday mornings and receive a complimentary hot beverage voucher and participation recognition for the chance to win some amazing prizing from Helly Hansen, Ryders Eyewear, Soave Coffee, tentree, Squamish Water Kefir Company and the Sea to Sky Gondola.
In addition to the prizing, we have put together a list of 5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN THE RISE + CLIMB SERIES.
