| What is it? | Higgy's On The Track is hosting a 9 Hour Motorcycle Endurance Event to raise money for Charity |
| How does it work? | Riders will do laps around the motorsport circuit for 9 hours non-stop, raising funds for every lap they complete.
The format will be 15 teams, with each team consisting of three riders and one motorcycle to share between them.
The 15 teams start accumulating laps at 9AM and ride until 6PM when all teams finish their final lap. |
| Per Lap Donations! | Normally, people make a lump sum donation to a Charity, and we accept those as well!
But to add an element of fun to the event, donations are possible (in fact, encouraged) to be made via sponsoring a team on a per lap basis: the more laps the team completes, the more money they raise for the charities. |

Children's Health Foundation of Vancouver Island has invested in the health of Island kids for more than 97 years. Their vision is to ensure all Island families have access to the health care they need, when and where they need it the most. The Foundation is 100% donor-funded, and thanks to its donors, it is able to bring supports closer to home and help transform the lives of children and youth living with health challenges. They collaborate with communities, partner organizations, and donors to fund programs and provide supports to address the daily and often urgent health care needs families face when caring for a child with complex health challenges.
Their crucial fundraising work began with inpatient support for kids with polio and other physical health challenges in 1927 and has evolved with every emerging health care need in the decades since. They know kids may only be 21% of our Island's population, but they are 100% of our future!

The Higgy's Team is proud to be volunteering our time and resources to making this day about the children. We are proud to say 100% of the donations raised are going directly to the Foundation. There is no overhead or administration fee, and we extend our thanks to Vancouver Island Motorsports Circuit for their support of the Charity Event.
100% of donation money raised is going directly to the Charities.
Please, give generously. Support Your Team, knowing that It's All For A Worthy Cause.
