The Excelsior Brewing Company (EBC) is excited to announce the 7th Annual Big Island & Back Winter Event
on Saturday, February 9th.
The first race (Ski Kite) begins at 11:00 am. Proceeds from the race entry fees will be donated to Freshwater Society and ICA Food Shelf.
To all of our partners and past participants, this is going to be our biggest and best winter Big Island & Back event yet! Early registration saves you a few bucks too!
The big news this year is that we are adding a Fat Bike category to the Ski and Snowshoe categories! The Bike race will go one lap around the full course after all the ski and snowshoe participants go out.
We have changed our registration system - you now have the following registration options:
1. Participant in your chosen category;
2. Non-Participant in the races, but making a financial donation.
You can also act as a supporter by rallying your friends and family to help raise extra funds to support the event - you can simply send out a link to www.signmeup.com/bigisland and ask for their financial support; with the help of your friends and family, we can increase our donation to these two important community organizations.
All registration funds are donated to Freshwater Society and ICA Food Shelf.
