Today we come together to conquer colon cancer.

Join us on Saturday, March 7, 2020 at Beech Mountain Resort, in Beech Mountain, NC.

Similar to a run or walk to support cancer, GYRIG participants can ask family or friends to donate on their behalf. Participants range in age and many do not even ski. Join us for a day of live music, skiing, snowboarding, parties, contest and more!

100% of donations and registration fees benefit the Colon Cancer Coalition. The chance of surviving colon cancer goes up with early detection and treatment-but only 40% of colon cancers are found in the early stages. Help us increase screening rates and save more lives.

Register:

Register as an individual or a team and ask family or friends to support your fundraising efforts. Not a skier, no problem! You can still be a part of a great event, and win cool prizes. The goal is simply to raise awareness and conquer colon cancer.

There are two ways to fund-raise:

  1. SIMPLE DONATION. Simple donation means that donors give a flat rate regardless of how many runs you do.
  2. PLEDGE PER RUN. Pledge per run means that donors pledge a dollar amount for every run you complete at the GYRIG event. For example, you can pledge $1 per run.
