Bike Rides will start and end at Prairie Loft there will be gravel on DLD Road, helmets are required. There will not be support for this ride. Each participant should be able to select preferred distance and ensure they are able to return by 2:00 p.m. at the latest, regardless of start time.

If you signed up to collect pledges and feel a little stuck these ideas may be helpful!

Remember: it’s YOUR passion and interest in Prairie Loft’s mission of teaching outdoor education, agricultural education, wise use of natural resources and cultural connections.

Digital Detox Day is more than a fundraiser, it’s a chance for everyone to set down their screens and be outside.

No screens, no stress—just fresh air, good food, real connection, and room to breathe.

Helpful Fundraising Tips

steps

PLEDGE PER STEP

Ask your friends, family and
co-workers to make a pledge-per-step. How many steps you will take during your walk? Or maybe average MPH on your ride?

Flat Rate

Ask for flat donation amounts.
Ask for specific donation amounts with a fundraising goal in mind that makes sense for your circle of influence!

OVERUNDERS

Feeling like “betting” on yourself? Make it a game and set overunders for time to finish, how many steps you will take, or anything you’d like! Keep it fair and remember, this is not a race.
