We were so thrilled to sponsor the Gallatin Valley Land & Trust (GVLT) Summer Trails Challenge this year! The GVLT receives $1 for every mile walked, biked, or hiked during the month-long event. This community-wide celebration raises funds that go directly towards building and maintaining our world-class trails system. At SAV, we prioritize personal wellness and community engagement, so we were excited to support and participate once again.
Congratulations to SAV's own Jason and Colin for leading the team with the most miles logged! Jason wrapped up June with an impressive 113 miles on foot, while Colin biked 141 miles. These are outstanding achievements! We also want to recognize the rest of the SAV team, nearly two dozen strong, who contributed to this effort.
Jason shared, "Trail running allows me to get outside and has been a major source of community and spiritual enrichment. I support GVLT because they ensure access to public outdoor spaces for generations to come."
A big thank you to everyone who participated in this fantastic wellness event that benefits our community! Together, as a community, we logged an incredible 99,608 miles, reaching the highest goal ever set for the Summer Trails Challenge!
