Okemo Bike Climb is a great event; we enjoy hosting and providing a BBQ for our cyclists and their guests. An awards ceremony will follow lunch bestowing the top riders with medals and a congratulatory round of applause!
Our field of riders comes from all over New England and the Northeast to compete in this 5.8 mile grueling race from Jackson Gore to the summit of Okemo Mountain. We are always so proud of our racers!
Ludlow Rotary wins as well; proceeds benefit our community fund used to assist with requests of support. In the past funds have supported local chapters of Cystic Fibrosis and Multiple Sclerosis; in our community we support our food shelf, youth shelter, student needs for music festivals, National History project, drug and alcohol awareness, and literacy - to name a few. Ludlow Rotary is now seeking area businesses and organizations to partner with it to help underwrite the expenses of preparing for this great event. Contact Jack Menzies at jjmenzie@gmail.com or 252-
