CHARLOTTE – Registration is open for the 24th year of 24 Hours of Booty, the signature non-competitive cycling and walking event hosted by 24 Foundation.
This year’s 24 Hours of Booty, presented by Levine Cancer Institute, will take place from 7 p.m. July 25 to 7 p.m. July 26 on the “Booty Loop” in Charlotte’s Myers Park neighborhood.
“Whether you ride, walk, volunteer or sponsor, your participation helps change the course of cancer,” said Katherine Murphy, executive director of 24 Foundation. “We are excited to bring our community together to ride, stride and celebrate hope, healing and connection for everyone affected by cancer.”
All cycling and walking participants must register (individually or with a team) online at 24foundation.org. The following are the registration and fundraising requirements:
• Adult riders/walkers (ages 18+): Pay a $75 registration fee and raise a minimum of $400.
• Youth riders/walkers (ages 12-17): Pay a $75 registration fee and raise a minimum of $200.
• Child riders (ages 8-11) and walkers (ages 4-11): Pay a $50 registration fee and raise a minimum of $50.
• Virtual “UnLooped” registration is $45 for adults and $25 for children (11 and under); no fundraising minimum.
Registered in-person participants receive the following: online fundraising tools, access to templates and fundraising ideas, fundraising level incentives, an event T-shirt, full bike and medical support, entertainment, as well as meals, snacks and drinks throughout the event.
24 Hours of Booty is not a race or an endurance event, allowing participants to set their own mileage goals and take breaks as needed. Riders and walkers can get on and off the police-secured course as much as they would like throughout the 24 hours.
Child riders (ages 8 to 11) are permitted on the course during the Survivor Lap (with a parent or guardian) and from noon to 7 p.m. on July 26.
In the past 24 years, 24 Foundation event participants have raised more than $29 million to support local and national cancer navigation and survivorship programs and services.
