Story

We are raising money because we care for trees! Every dollar raised through this event will be dedicated for research and education for our tree care professionals in the west.

The 16th Annual Britton Fund Ride fundraising event is partnering with the Western Chapter of the ISAs Annual Conference and Trade Show in the majestic mountains of the Tahoe Valley, California. Join us on May 8, 2023, and create your personal legacy as we ride along side of the beautiful Truckee River Legacy Trail and beyond.

This years bike ride includes two fantastic routes. We have a 32-mile ride along the Legacy Trail from the Resort at Squaw Creek to the community of Glenshire and back. Cyclists may extend their journey for another 42 miles though the town of Truckee, over the mountains of Donner Pass, by the picturesque Donnor Lake, to Cisco Grove Gould Park then back to the Resort. In total, about 74 miles. Along the way, our tour will include a fun tree planting ceremony at a local elementary school. This gathering with children and teachers reminds our cyclists and donors how important it is to care for our environment and maintain healthy trees for future generations to enjoy.

Join us! You can support our fundraising ride in the following ways: Sign up as a cyclist or donate on behalf of a cyclist on this site! Or become an event sponsor by sending The Britton Fund an email at info@admin . Each cyclist is asked to raise $750 in pledges. Your generosity will help create an exciting and successful fundraising event and support the good work of our tree care professionals.

The Britton Fund is a nonprofit organization that supports tree care professionals and members of the Western Chapter of the ISA. Its mission is to raise private and public funding for science-based research and education to benefit the field of arboriculture and urban forestry with emphasis on issues inherent to the geographic area of California, Nevada, Arizona, and Hawaii. We share outcomes and new knowledge through publications and on-line resources, workshops, seminars, and regional conferences.

Thank you for your participation and partnership! Your generosity will help us maintain healthy trees allowing future generations to enjoy beautiful urban forests.
