Event Description

How many times can you hustle up Blackwell Forest Preserve's Mt Hoy?  Beautiful Mt. Hoy, rising 836 feet above sea level, gives you an awesome panoramic view of the western suburbs and when the sky is clear, you can see the Chicago skyline in the distance.

We are raising funds for Bridge Communities program partner that is sponsoring and mentoring two homeless families in a 2 year program as they transition to self-sufficiency.

Help us conquer homelessness as you conquer the mountain!  You can join us at Mt Hoy Sunday Sep 11 or you can do your own walk/run/hustle anytime between Sep 11th-19th, at Mt Hoy or at a site of your choice as part of Hustle Across the States.  Share this event with friends and family across the country. Please email photos of your personal hustle to maryann.palma@comcast.net or airwolfe@comcast.net and we'll put a pin in your state!
