"Snow Run" History & Current Day
The Snow Run Tour which is a total of 4 states is 20 years old and started in NY giving money directly to patients in need and grew into a multiple states tour. The event started as a snowmobile ride and dinner with raising pledges and recognizing a top fundraiser. Participants goal themselves for how many people they want to help as Pink Ribbon Riders gives $500 per patient in need. There is a free registration period that gives you time to raise pledges to cover your registration and not take it out of pocket. In all the event is open to men and women and has auctions and fundraising along with the pledge program. In 2022 the event has evolved to a Bra Scavenger hunt that you can do by car, jeep, truck or snowmobile! There is a grand prize of $250. awarded to the “Hunt” winner and lots of other runner up prizes. The day ends with dinner and awards and names a TOP FUNDRAISER of the event.

Fundraising - It's How We Give
Raising pledges is the key to helping those in need. Raising pledges is critical to the event and being able to give to patients in need.
We ask that each participant goal themselves at $500.00. This is the amount Pink Ribbon Riders gives to one patient in need.
And you can raise pledges to cover your registration!
Ask 12 friends for $10! Or turn in your recycling cans… every penny really adds up! Goal yourself to raise $500 and help one patient in need.
Here is how simple it can be:
- Online Fundraising: Once you register our program offers a pledge page you create and can send out to those you know.
- Your donors receive an automatic receipt and it keeps your total for you!
