CONTRIBUTED TO THE OBSERVER
LOACHAPOKA — Auburn University’s Engineers Without Borders is inviting everyone to the 4th Annual Water Cycle, a gravel cycling event on Saturday, March 29, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event will be held at Pioneer Park, located at 6500 Stage Road in Loachapoka.
Proceeds will fund life-saving infrastructure projects in Guatemala and Bolivia, directly improving access to clean drinking water and sustainable irrigation systems in underserved communities.
“The Water Cycle is our most important event every year. We would not be able to aid the communities we work in without our riders, sponsors and supporters,” said Addison Faggard, fundraising chair for Engineers Without Borders. “All of the funds raised during the Water Cycle go toward the projects we are working on and provide valuable experiences for our engineers. We are grateful to be able to hold this event and excited about the new venue. We hope to see you there!”
Event Highlights
There will be three cycle routes:
15-mile fun ride
30-mile gravel race
60-mile gravel race
Prizes will be awarded to race winners.
Post-ride festivities will include food and beer, live music and games at Pioneer Park. Tickets to the post-ride festivities are included with rider registration and also available for non-riders.
