Jul 19 - Jul 23 Prospera Valley GranFondo
The overall goal of the Prospera Valley Granfondo is to create a legacy event for the Fraser Valley, by partnering with likeminded organizations such as Cycling BC, the vision of CVEMS can be realized by targeting youth within the local education system and guiding them to make healthy living choices. This in turn will help nurture the next generation that will result in a net positive benefit for the society of the Fraser Valley as a whole. The Prospera Valley GranFondo is looking for volunteers to help support 1500 cyclists enjoy the granfondo experience in Fort Langley. Being a small, grassroots non-profit society, we would not be able to put on this event without volunteers who offer their time, energy, support and enthusiasm.
