Rings of Strength is Back for 2016
This is the fourth edition of the Jewelers for Children event, which asks participants to bike, run or do yoga to help support children in need.
New York--Jewelers for Children is bringing back its Rings of Strength tour in 2016, offering bicycle and walking/running routes as well as a yoga session for participants whose involvement will benefit children in need.
The Rings of Strength tour
Participants can choose from one of two bike routes, a challenging 50K in scenic Red Rock Canyon or a moderate 15K ride. There’s also a brisk 5K run or a relaxing 5K walk along the Las Vegas strip. Bicycle rentals will be available from McGhie’s, which will deliver the bikes to the tour’s starting point. Riders are welcome to bring their own bikes as well.
For yogis, there will be a 90-minute yoga session with instructor Suzanne Adams of Assurant Solutions. The session will begin at 9:30 a.m. and mats will be provided.
Those biking or walking should first register as individuals, and then go on to organize a team if desired. When registering, each participant also can create their own unique URL to share when asking for donations.
Registration for the 2016 Rings of Strength tour can be found here, and sponsorship opportunities also are available.
“Rings of Strength really is an event for everybody,” said Rebecca Foerster, executive vice president of strategic planning and marketing at Leo Schachter Diamonds, and a JFC board member. “The event has a real sense of camaraderie and provides an outlet for folks who have a hectic day during a busy week.”
