Ride & Walk 4 Art

Registration Open!
New in 2019!

Two timed climbing challenges to add excitement to an already exhilarating ride. 

•Hogan Dam, .7 miles and 4.6% grade
•Pardee Dam, .6 miles and 5.8% grade

•Every rider is timed and tracked by satellite! (No extra cost) 
•Compare your personal best segment performance to others.

•Friends can follow your ride and progress online. 

This is NOT a RACE! 
Try your best on several segments or coast leisurely the entire course.

Join us for a day of fun to support arts in education!

Please join us on March 17, 2019 for Ride & Walk4Art in the beautiful California foothills in West Calaveras County. Choose from 2 bicycle rides—25-miles or 45-miles—or an easy 4.5-mile walk skirting New Hogan Lake.

​Afterwards, the Tri-Dam lions will prepare a Chicken-in-a-Barrel lunch.

This is the fourth year the Calaveras County Arts Council has held Ride & Walk4Art. Past participants say that this event is the best local bike and walk event, and serves a sensational lunch along with a friendly community atmosphere. 


We're accepting no more than 290 participants—250 cyclists and 40 walkers—making this an intimate ride with a community vibe. You'll traverse rolling California foothills along roads that rarely see cars, past scenic views of oak forests and pastoral meadows and the blue waters of three reservoirs.

Your participation will help raise funds for the Calaveras Arts Council Arts in Education program, a program designed to bring art, music, dance, and theatre to the schools of Calaveras County. 
In the last two years we have supported watercolor classes, collage instruction, ceramic classes, and school murals. The kids are creative; they are hungry for art.  In 2019 the CCAC plans to offer even more art. Simply by having fun, you can help us help the children of Calaveras County. 
Registration: January 1-March 15.
​Registration closes at 250 riders and 40 walkers.
Fees: $40 for bicyclists/$50 on day of event
$20/age 16 and under/$30 on day of event
 $20 for Walkers
